First let me say that Christopher was an excellent host and helped my family (2 adults, 2 kids) by answering questions fast prior to arriving, including working around our schedule and trying to maximize our itinerary with his apt availability. We knew there was a portacot, and the kitchen had all the appliances we needed. As a host, he was absolutely perfect. Unfortunately, the neighborhood is undergoing extreme renovations everywhere, and this apt building too. Lots of hammering, lots of noise outside. Bondi is in desperate need of renovation as the houses are old - this apt needs it. Floors are creaking, sound travels far, touch ups are noticeable, upstairs people walking sounds like they are actually in our apartment. Overall, the location was excellent. We would have loved a quieter stay, or a warning.
