I totally recommend Marcelle & Peter's place for a stay in Sydney. Their house is very beautiful, plenty of space, very nice decorated, beautiful wooden Furniture, huge Kitchen. I really felt at home (well...to be honest, I would love to live myself in a house like that!). I didn't meet M&P since they were on holidays, but online communication worked out very well. The house isn't located directly in the city centre, but it's easy to reach by bus or train. The place is located in a very quiet street, at the same time, it's very close to Enmore Street, which is a very lively street, with lots of restaurants, coffee places etc. Definitely a great area.
