Quick 2 night stop over

Some friends and I had a couple of nights between dive trips, one to the GBR and the other in Fiji, our time was short so location was important. Loved having the historical location, the bedrooms nice and comfy and room to spread out. We spent very little time at the apartment, but it was perfect for our needs! Sam was a wealth of information upon check in and responsive to my need for morning coffee. Overall, a great stay for a couple of nights.

Perfect location

If you’re looking for an amazing location I highly recommend this property. Short walk to both The Rocks and Darling Harbour. Great pubs, restaurants and bars close by. Public transport is also very close. Very cool, quirky cottage. Living area is very small so don’t expect to be lounging around too much. Had everything we needed. Would definitely stay again.

Lovely, quaint apartment

this was a lovely apartment. Was our artistically decorated, very clean, the host was absolutely wonderful and helpful, the living room area is small and we had four people including two big men but we loved this cute little place so much that we didn't even notice the tight fit! It is across the street from from the water, but the apartment itself does not overlook the harbor

Excellent location

From start to finish the whole experience was very smooth. Excellent communication with the host throughout. Location of the property is 15 minute walk from the harbour. Views of the Opera House as you walk down. Great pub across the road which does food. Some lovely restaurants and cafes nearby. Lovely walks around the property too. Excellent views of harbour bridge from the observatory around the corner. Cannot fault the property/location. Property was spotlessly clean and has everything you could need.

Great host and location

Host was great! Went out of her way to help us and allowed us to drop our bags off early. Home is very quaint and in a great location. If you’re skirmish about cockroaches, be aware that there are several. host. Said that is typical for this time of year, but they did freak us out as they were large and flying. We loved the location and our hosts.

Great spot

An excellent location to explore Sydney. Lovely vibrant neighborhood. Interesting as it is a heritage property with so much history. Main living area a bit small, good space up with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths although the beds could be a bit more comfortable. Disappointing that there is no WiFi. Great communication with the host, especially if we needed anything.
