It would be hard to think of a better location. The apartment is quiet at night (facing out onto a side street), but is right next to a major shopping centre with everything that might be needed - supermarkets, department stores, food court, cinema, post office, medical and more. There is a very good cafe right across from the apartment, and plenty of other options nearby. At the end of the street is a major bus stop - from there can be anywhere in downtown or inner-city Sydney within a few minutes. The buses will stop at Central train station, and it would only be a 10-15 minute walk anyway. There's a large park nearby and Glebe Point Rd is a short distance with lots of interesting shops and restaurants. It's nice to stay in a residential area and feel a bit like a local, but also be so close to the city and everything there.
Dionne is a wonderful host, always quick to respond to messages and to address any potential concerns. Check in and out were both very easy. The apartment is spacious and comfortable, and I thought it was excellent value for the location.
This is a great base from which to explore Sydney, just don't stay there the next time I want to!
