Our host was out of the country when we checked in but she made the process very easy. Detailed instructions and kept in contact the whole time. The apartment is as described plus some. It is like a home away from home.

The location is great. It is an easy walk from some awesome restaurants in Kings Cross, the train station or even the city centre (we walked to Hyde Park one day which wasn't difficult).

The coffee shop Room10 in the alley adjacent is awesome! Great coffee and breakfast options. The food market further down the alley is also great.

Yes - the previous reviews about the stairs is true. Getting up with bags isn't easy....but take your time....your on holidays!

Access to the washing machines was fantastic and there was every other amenity available that we could think of (computer, internet, etcetera).

The area can get loud at night as people pass through either alleyway to get into Kings Cross. It's not a dangerous or roudy area with everywhere well lit. It just sounds louder and more full on as the noise echos.

After a couple if days we really felt at home and didn't want to leave. We will definitely use this apartment for future Sydney travels.
