Hugh's apartment exceeded our expectations. It is comfortable, roomy, well appointed with stylish, Ikea furniture, very clean and easy to keep that way. There are excellent restaurants in abundance within 5 minutes walk, an excellent supermarket next door and public transport very close by, although we walked to the city centre and Opera House in around 30 mins. Hugh is a wonderful host, he lives close by and although we didn't need any, offered his help. We found the night life fascinating, but for the morally squeamish, Kings Cross is easily avoided. It was wonderful to feel like part of the residential Sydney and not just an anonymous tourist in a big tourist machine, yet we were only minutes away from all the things we wanted to do. Thanks Hugh, we will be back. (Loved the local cockatoos)
