We stayed at Keith's place for more than 3 weeks. It was a delight to meet Keith and his family. They took good care of us and did not mind our naughty son. These days who comes to give umbrella because it has been forecasted heavy rains showers. That's the kind of care. A lot of help from them.
Their place is sufficient for a small family (3) like ours - they have thought everything possible to make the stay comfortable from entertainment center (DVD, BlueRay) huge screen to cooking utensils to clean bed sheets to toiletry supplies. They also arranged milk, oil and eggs for us so we can cook and eat when we want on day 1.
The bedroom is furnished with queen bed, side table, racks and open cupboards. The bathroom has a heated system and a big glass shower to enjoy. The living room is spacious with a full blown library of DVDs, big couch, island extended for Kitchen. The Kitchen, it's small but we never had problem cooking of boilerplates and storing it in a small fridge. Plenty of cooking material available for us to use. Outside we have a huge balcony or deck or porch which leads to greenery and trees no roads. Its very safe. Our breakfast usually used to be outside in sunlight.
Coles and Forestville community center is 10 - 15 mins walk ( Domino's Pizza), the bus station is 10 - 15 mins walk with every bus going to Chatswood Train Station. The frequency of buses is good. We never a problem travelling thru train or buses.
One feature that near Keith's house there is a Karata center for children - run by Ivonne Sensei. It's affordable and kept my son occupied. He used to look forward to joining the Karata class. They are awesome to teaching children.
Apology for big review but I thought of covering most. :)
