We had a lovely, comfortable stay at Charlotte and Chris's place in Potts Point. Charlotte was extremely responsive in the lead-up to our arrival, replying within minutes or hours.
Chris greeted us upon check-in, took us around the apartment and gave us tips on the neighborhood (also available in a cute folder they have on the coffee table).
The apartment itself is clean and stylish, but still very much personal. It was easy to imagine that the space was once a lovely home for someone before it became an Airbnb. The pantry was full of oils, salts and other seasonings, which is great if you want to do a bit of light cooking.
When there was some challenge with check-in and check-out times, Charlotte pointed us to several tie-ups she has with shops in the area where we could store our bags for a small fee, which was a big help. The store owners were friendly and knew to expect us. Charlotte also has arrangements with the local coffee shop, where you can get a small discount.
We were a short walk from King's Cross station, and the neighborhood itself is full of fun coffee shops and restaurants. The crowd is eclectic: fancy coffee-drinking yuppies, families, folks in recovery, backpackers and tourists. A very authentic experience. And while we were warned by the listing that there might occasionally be talking noise from the street, we didn't experience it at all.
A very pleasant, centrally located place with responsive hosts. Would book again.
