A few things to note:
1. Location: The apartment was walking distance to Bondi Beach. It was also very close (walking distance) to many restaurants and shops.
2. Parking: If you rent a smaller car, the parking space provided will work perfectly. However, since we had a larger car (midsize SUV), the garage parking was a bit tight for us and in order to park in the garage we had to take out our license plate. We travel with a mini screw driver so this came in handy, but, if we didn’t, we would have had to park on the street. We are unsure if we could have parked in front of the garage? This could be a good alternative for larger cars.
3. Communication: The host was very accessible and was easy to reach via the airbnb app.
4. Air: There was no AC
however, we knew this going into it. Thankfully there were two fans, which helped a lot, since it was really hot / humid in the apartment. And even though there were windows, we were hesitant to keep them open since the apartment was on a lower floor and since there were no screens - we were worried about bugs/mosquitos.
5. Laundry: The host left good instructions on how to operate the washing/drying machine. We used it and even though it took a while for the clothes to dry, it was great having clean clothes. Also, something to note is that the washer/dryer are not in the apartment unit but outside of it in a locked public space requiring us to stay nearby during this process.
6. Internet: There was excellent wifi/internet available.
