Decent, but …
The place was fine, clean and reasonably well equipped. It felt a little crowded, especially the living-dining-kitchen area, because the furniture was a little too big for the space. The tv was nice and big and we could watch Netflix, though other channels didn’t seem to work.
The kitchen had most of the things you would need, but it was something of a hodgepodge of equipment. Clearly, a lot of it was whatever the owners no longer wanted. The knives were ridiculously dull - the paring knife would literally function as a toddler’s toy except for the pointy end. The lone cutting board was tiny. The Nespresso machine would not make coffee. I never tried the espresso machine. The toaster worked fine. The laundry machines worked fine.
My biggest issue was that, towards the end of our 10-day stay, we were running low on toilet paper so I sent a message asking for one or two extra rolls and was told “No, they didn’t do that.” I realize that this isn’t a hotel, but having to buy a pack of 8 rolls when one would have sufficed was really annoying.
The area was quite nice with easy access to a couple of parks. There were some decent coffee shops and restaurants in three directions, but all of them were uphill from the apartment. Sydney seems to be quite hilly so this is probably a common experience.
So, all in all, a decent place but not one I’m gushing over.
