Silvia openly welcomed us to her home for 2 nights whilst we were in Sydney. We didn't see her much during our stay as we were out most of the time. It is a nice modern apartment.

Our only note would be that the apartment is adjacent to a major road that is busy, so if you're a light sleeper you might be kept awake by the noise of cars and the train. Silva does supply ear plugs to help mitigate this noise, however would have been nice to know this before our stay.
