Highly recommended! Shane was a very nice and friendly guest. I also visited a nice jazz concert with her. Her accommodation was close to the city centre. If you catch a bus from her home to Cremorne Point (n. 225) and a ferry (n. F6) from Cremorne Point to Circular Quay (the harbor where is located the Sydney Opera House), this trip takes 20-30 minutes. I was feeling welcome and safe at her home. I enjoyed it a lot!
