Sizable and tidy room in a lovely neighbourhood.
Surry Hills is a gorgeous neighborhood, just a 5-15 minute walk to heaps of great looking restaurants and bars. It's also only a 15 minute walk from Central station. Unfortunately everything seems to close early but this seems to be a city wide thing!
The room was spacious and very clean. The whole house in fact, was sparkling. Bappy's team do a great job maintaining the space.
There's only one bathroom shared between 3/4? bedrooms. I personally never had to wait more than a couple minutes so as long as everyone respects that they should be quick this isn't an issue. There was a powerful fan provided in the room - I was very thankful for that.
I was a little worried about being able to cook - as it says on the page that they do not encourage guests to cook. I actually didn't but plenty of other people did and as long as you clean up after yourself, again, it's fine.
The only thing I wasn't 100% happy with was that they ask you to pay $7 per person if you want to leave your bags early before check-in or late on check-out. This is usually a free service with most accomodations I've used (hotel/hostels/airbnbs).
I would understand if someone had to be there during drop off/pick up, but guests used a lock box to get in and out independently, and because of a constant turnaround of guests in all bedrooms the common areas were never completely empty. I guess I don't really understand why there would have been a charge for this service in this instance.
Luckily, my accomodations before and after both offered to keep my luggage so I didn't have to pay.
That one little annoyance aside, this is excellent accommodation and I highly recommend.
