The Veriu is in a great location, close to the city, Sydney Uni, walking distance to King Street in Newtown, Glebe Point Road which means you're spoilt for choice on places to eat, great coffee and bars. As mentioned in the other reviews due to being located on Parramatta Road, be prepared for traffic noise.
We chose to take our dog with us and didn't read the additional rules section properly when making the booking and were surprised to read the additional cleaning fee that would be charged at check in, definitely a case of buyer beware but I suggest if you're choosing to take you dog, read all the rules.
Caitlin did an excellent job in managing my expectations when I called to query.
