We really enjoyed our stay at the studio. Scott,Flash (the cat) and the family were excellent hosts. Very informative and gave us a great tour around Marrickville. The apartment is stunning and like others have mentioned before, the cooker was amazing as was the water pressure (very important when you have big hair!). The train station is an easy 10-15 min walk away and Scott provided us with Opal cards as well which was really helpful. The supermarket is at the top of the road and the area is buzzing with shops, bars and coffee outlets. As it was my first time in Sydney, I wasn't aware that the "inner west" was on the flight path but it's something you soon get used too.
Can't fault the place and would highly recommend it everyone and hopefully one day we'll go back! Thanks a load. :)
