Absolutely brilliant location, and a wonderful property!
This property was incredible for location and cleanliness. We found the location to be so central and the communication with Stephanie to be brilliant. The accomodation does have a number of stairs to access it (it’s on the second floor) and a decent flight within it too, with the handrail being slightly shorter than average. It’s probably not a good place for those who aren’t fairly nimble on stairs. The property is beautifully presented and we found the layout perfect for our needs. The bathroom is small and contains the toilet, however, it is clean, tidy and very functional. We found the small shampoo bottles and spare roll of toilet paper to be very helpful in getting us though until our grocery order arrived. The facilities within the apartment give it a great ability to eat at “home” but there is also a pub across the road too. We stayed weekdays so it wasn’t too loud (the pub) however I am not sure if it would be a bit noisier on the weekends, especially in the early arvo and evenings. The property had pedestal fans (one didn’t work) and fin heaters in the bedrooms, with the lounge area having an electric heater (turns on but doesn’t work/heat) too however there is no other heating or cooling for the property, and no screens on the windows. We stayed when the weather was really lovely but it did get a little cool at night so the fin heaters were very appreciated. Our biggest tip for those who are getting out and about is to use the LIFT that is located down the road if you are worn out from walking and don’t feel up for using the stairs to get back to the property. We found out about it on the last day of our stay and we’re very appreciative of it. The lift is located past the second (new, more even and safer spaced, with treads) stairs that can be found along Gloucester Street, if you head toward Cumberland Street, and is just down a little ramp area on the side of a building. The lift takes you down to Harrington Street and is then an easier stroll to Circular Quay. You honestly cannot beat this accomodation for its incredible location to so many beautiful sights of Sydney and we found it to be completely fantastic! Thanks so much Stephanie!
