This is our 3rd stay at Alan and Charlie's within one (month-long) trip. We did not bother hop the properties after the first couple of days and just came back repeatedly around their availability and our out-of-city trips. They will also be our first choice the next trip to Sydney, whenever that is.
Between their hospitality, quiet location, closeness to the airport, authentic Asian food 20 minutes walk one way and authentic Indian/Pakistani/etc food 20 minutes walk the other way, a nice home library and a table outside under the cover, they present a very strong competition to any other property. Oh, and how about a banana from breakfast from their own tree!
