Christine’s place in Birchgrove was excellent for my purposes. The apartment is more roomy than I thought, is stylish and clean - and Christine went above and beyond in terms of readying it for a guest. It had everything I required over the course of a week’s stay. The area is great too, Birchgrove and Balmain lovely. The apartment is near to buses going into the CBD and one day I got a ferry back. There are some great little cafes right near it, and all the main shops about 10 mins walk away. Definitely recommended.
