Our issue was situational ie construction works on the building taking place during our stay. Other than that the place is as expected for a surry hills apartment. Its an old and cold apartment but the walls are freshly painted and the bathroom nicely renovated and the electric heaters do heat it up nicely. The hot water takes a while to heat up and the lighting is not great but it is as expected for the age of the building. the location on bourke street is very convenient. Woolies across the road and plenty of nice cafes and pubs a short walk away. The apartment was very clean also.
