Hugo’s place is a cozy little apartment in a great location at a cheap price, just a few mins walk from Kings Cross station. It has most of what you need and is a good nest near the CBD to come back to.
Bed was fantastic, super comfy and quiet place to sleep. Kitchen had everything I needed, and TV worked well with Chromecast. Ollie was also a nice bloke and friendly despite my clumsiness at both check in & check out.
There was a few minor problems however. The kitchen utensils seemed a little dirty & greasy, and I had to clean them before use, not a huge deal as i’d do this anyway. The shower/bath had a little rust, which again isn’t a huge deal, but definitely made me feel the age of the apartment a little more. The Mac computer shown in the photos was also nowhere in the apartment during my stay, I doubt i’d have used it, but definitely not 100% as advertised. One issue did bother me a little more, during my final two days, there was no hot water coming from the showers or the taps initially, and it took my about 25-30 mins to even get the water to even be somewhat lukewarm. I can’t hold the hosts to fault for this however, because it may have been a problem with the buildings plumbing.
Overall despite a few shortcomings, considering the price and location, it was a great place to stay and I would recommend it to anyone with a smaller budget who is coming to see Sydney.
