  • Reviewer: Steph

    Comments: Jess was extremely helpful & a great host. Lovely apartment close to public transport, lots of restaurants & bars close by.

  • Reviewer: Ricky

    Comments: I stayed in Jess' apartment for five days and had a wonderful time. The flat is really clean and in a handy location for getting around Sydney. There's some really nice coffee and brunch places nearby and it's close to the redfern station. Jess is a great host and her communication is excellent. Would definitely come back and stay here again.

  • Reviewer: Chris

    Comments: Had a great stay at jess's apartment. Place was sparkly clean, bed was comfy, pool was nice. Everything is as Jess said in the description. One stop to central station but spent most of my free time neandering newtown and erskineville. There is some street noise but it wasnt enough to bother me if you keep the windows shut its fine. This place was really a pleasant surprise after my last air bnb experience. Thanks for having me Jess 10/10 would stay again.

  • Reviewer: Caroline

    Comments: Great apartment in a great central location near the station and lots of bars and restaurants. Everything was as described and I really enjoyed my stay. Would definitely stay here again if I find myself back in Sydney!

  • Reviewer: Matthias

    Comments: Perfect location, close from shops and train station, literraly in front of bus stops. Even walking to the center is easy. Redfern/alexandria is a lively neigbordhood, with pubs, barber shop, cofe, etc. The apparment is really good, everything necessary, just perfect, nothing to add. And Jess his a really nice host, respond super fast and there if needed. Higly recommanded.

  • Reviewer: Karen

    Comments: Jess's place was perfect for our weekend stay in Sydney! Just a five minute walk to the train station, some nice coffee shops nearby and the apartment itself was exactly as described. Thanks Jess!

  • Reviewer: Marie-Stephane

    Comments: Super appartement bien situé à proximité de la gare de Redfern. Bien équipé. On s'y sentait comme à la maison. Très bonne communication avec Jess. Je recommande sans problème.

  • Reviewer: Karen

    Comments: This a spacious, surprisingly quiet unit given its location on a main road. The amenities are nice with a spacious balcony and outdoor setting at the back. Would stay again!

  • Reviewer: Brett

    Comments: I do not normally care to write reviews but I had to after staying at this apartment in Redfern. The entire apartment is lovely and it is directly near the train station. The value of the property is great. Unfortunately, just about every Airbnb rental does not allow you to have parties or any big events, including this apartment. However, this apartment complex has a pool and a place to grill out (where you can bring people) which really sets it apart from other Airbnb rentals. What really surprised me was the excellent hospitality. Jess is extremely trusting and nice because she would always help me out with any possible inconvenience that I encountered. For example, once I requested to stay one night less because of my financial budget since I am a broke college student. Jess said that's fine and asks if she can pay me electronically (for the night that I would not be staying), but I had to ask her if she could pay me in cash because I had zero in my bank account (It takes a few days to transfer) and I needed the money for food for that week (However, I didn't tell her that). I felt bad asking for the cash to be delivered because I knew she had to take care her 3 - week old baby but it was like essential. Without hesitation, she dropped off the money the next day in cash and she didn't know how much that helped me out. Also, they provide you with a pamphlet that lists places to eat nearby, they give you privacy, jess constantly responds to your text messages immediately, and they have the place refurbished with every possible necessity. You would think that they wouldn't care about you and your stay after you give them a down payment, but unlike most Airbnb's, they want you to have a great stay even after you pay. It's like staying at a hotel. I highly recommend this place in particular because I researched all of the possible Airbnb rentals for hours and this was by far the best-valued one that I could find.

  • Reviewer: Pavlos

    Comments: It was an amazing place. Very close to station. Close to supermarket and shops. Clean, quiet and safe place. Well Done Jess for helping me out and my parents for staying there. You made them feel more than like their house. Would strongly recommend it and i look forward to come back again!!!!

  • Reviewer: Manuel

    Comments: Spacious and very comfortable apartment. Large terrace that allows you to enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner outside. Very quiet community area with pool to enjoy in summer. There is also a BBQ in the communal area but it is unusable due to dirt. Apartment 10 minutes walk from Redfern station, with bus stop at the door and very well connected. It is 30 minutes walk from Town Hall and 20 minutes from the University of Sydney. Quiet neighbourhood although somewhat noisy due to traffic. In the neighbourhood, you can find all the necessary services. We were in the apartment for 3 months.

  • Reviewer: Luke

    Comments: Good location, clean and comfortable apartment. Would recommend.

  • Reviewer: Michaela

    Comments: This apartment was really fantastic. Both Jess and her partner Matt were amazing hosts. Everything was so clean and comfortable. In a great location, really close to public transport and the city.

  • Reviewer: Hanna

    Comments: Jess was very friendly and helpful. I didn’t meet her but we talk by message. We arrive to the town at morning and leave really late and she organise to leave us the appartement at 7am when we arrive and leave us to leave the baggage until we fly back at night that make our couple of days to Sydney easier. The appartement was clean and nice. The bed is really comfortable. It’s really good place to stay when you want to be close to town but not in a middle with all trafic at night. I’m gonna try to be back for sure. Thank Jess! Hanna.

  • Reviewer: Hannah

    Comments: Great location & very clean. Friendly and accomodating - I requested late check out and then also offered to look after my bags for me if I needed. Quick responses for any questions

  • Reviewer: Tc

    Comments: Had a great stay at Jess’ place. Jess was very responsive at all hours of the day and Was extremely hospitable. Very close to transport, parks, cafes and the CBD. Would recommend to anyone looking to stay in the Redfern or Alexandria area.

  • Reviewer: Kayla

    Comments: Beautiful apartment within a short walk of the station which is so close to the CBD. The apartment was clean and extremely homey! We found a lovely cafe near the station which we loved popping into before we headed out for the day. We had a fantastic stay!

    Comments: The apartment is very nice, clean and comfortable! Loved the back balcony overlooking lawn/pool. Location is very convenient, near shops and public transport. Jess was very helpful and friendly; excellent communication. Took care of any situation that arose, as I stayed one month. She’s a super host!

  • Reviewer: Daniel

    Comments: Great location and facilities. Plan ahead however if you require parking - as with most of inner-city Sydney locations availability is difficult to come by. I pre-booked with Wilson Parking and caught a 10 min Uber.

  • Reviewer: Karen

    Comments: Jess place is perfect, I didn’t want to leave it because have a great location, you can walk to the city And there is a supermarket very close so you can buy everything you need. I think is everything you need!

  • Reviewer: Carol

    Comments: Jess very responsive to queries. Apartment very well located for train station into Sydney Circular Quay in 15 minutes. Supermarket close by and numerous places to eat.

  • Reviewer: Niklas
