Les points forts : Propreté
Great location, nice building amenities, smaller than it seems, interesting art choices
I came to Sydney for couple of weeks worth of business. This place worked out (mostly) wonderfully as an alternative to the hotel.
The bed was comfortable.
The pool and sauna are totally great. Workout equipment is adequate to the task.
The 1BR apartment is really a studio divided into two narrow rooms by wall. Both look bigger in pictures than they are. The gigantic TV was filled with lots of streaming content available. The bedroom has great sturdy blinds.
Internet was mysteriously spotty on some days, TV stayed streaming though. Weird.
There are at least 2 grocery stores within a block, which made getting provisions for breakfast (milk, yoghurt, pastries, fruit) easy. The kitchen is clearly of a "let's have take out" variety. It is very, very small and not equipped for cooking much more than the eggs we boiled one morning.
The closets are all full of the owner's clothes so we stayed in our suitcases. My suits and dress shirts I had to hang on the chair.
The bookshelf had some nice books one of which I was happy to read.
The art...... Was underrepresented in the pictures. My wife did not expect to see quite so much female nakedness portrayed in various paintings, photos, woodcuts and statues.
The location near Kings Cross train station + bus stuff is definitely the biggest plus. The city is easily accessible via T4 train through there, and even walking to the center is easy. Lots of restaurants! Nearby fountain plaza hosts a fun weekend market.
Overall good.
