Neighborhood Overview: Many people think of North Sydney as the CBD alone, but the CBD is surrounded by some of the best living in Sydney. If you work in the city you are spoilt for choice when it comes to transport. Trains and buses are constant. On a nice day walk to work across our great bridge. Stroll to nearby restaurants at Blues Point Road, Crows Nest or Neutral Bay, or stay in North Sydney itself with a great variety of restaurants and good pubs. Everything is walking distance in this suburb. There are great shops at Greenwood Plaza, Walker Street, Neutral Bay or Crows Nest for all your grocery needs or late night requirements. Visit the great markets near the North Sydney council on Friday nights and Saturdays. Parks are plentiful with North Sydney oval and Cammeray park perfect for kids and families, or take a leisurely stroll to the harbour.

Notes: All the apartments we manage come with a welcome letter and a full instruction manual so you know how everything works to ensure you can get the most out of your stay. The manual also contains many menus from local restaurants to give you some idea of what is available nearby and also information on tourist activities available in Sydney. There is also a local map with some highlights such as the local supermarket and train station plus maps of Sydney for those not familiar with the area. All bedding and towels are included for two people along with beginner basics such as tea, coffee, sugar, milk, shampoo, bodywash and toilet paper to get you through the first few days. We try to meet all guests on arrival in person so a time will be arranged in advance of your arrival which will also be confirmed in the day once you know your plans. On arrival we ask all guests to quickly fill in some contact information and tell them a little bit more about how we hope they'll look after the apartme

Transit: The ferry is just a few moments walk away at the High Street ferry wharf which takes you directly to Circular Quay for The Rocks and the Opera House. There is a train station at Circular Quay also if you want to travel further afield.

We kindly ask guests to wash and put away all used items from the kitchen and leave any rubbish in the external rubbish bins when they leave.

  • Reviewer: Laure

    Comments: We spent two weeks in this apartment really well located. Stephen was really helpful and replied really quickly to all of our questions. The apartment was really clean when we arrived. It is located near to the Harbour Bridge (10min walking) where you can have a really nice view on the Opera House. It was really easy to go to the CBD by the train, Milsons Point station is only 10min walking (and then 1 stop to go to Town Hall) or you can still walk on the bridge to go to Circular Quay. The kitchen is really well furnished with a big fridge, microwawe, oven, and gas hotplate. We had a really good time, the area is really quiet, some convenience stores are really close to the apartment and there is a COLES and ALDI in North Sydney around 10min walking. I think it's one of the best whole apartment you can find in Sydney regarding quality/price/location. Thanks again Stephen!

    Comments: Great place, located just 5 minutes north of the sydney bridge, you can walks across to south sydney in 15/20 mins (all along the bridge so its a nice walk!). Very clean, all the facilities you would need! Would recommend and stay again!

  • Reviewer: Kaytlin

    Comments: This was a great place and great location! Had everything we needed, in the kitchen, bathroom and even had cheap laundry! Stephen was an awesome host!

  • Reviewer: Warren

    Comments: Thank you Stephen, great apartment centrally located, great value for money.

  • Reviewer: Samantha

    Comments: The apartment is located in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood, but only takes 10-15 minutes to walk across the bridge to the busier side of town. Stephen was very quick to respond with questions and made sure we knew where to find things like extra towels and blankets. He was also very accommodating, as we arrived early. The people living in the area were also incredibly friendly. We encountered a couple of neighbors, all of whom were very kind and welcoming, and even provided good suggestions for things to do in the area. The Flying Bear is just by the park, and has excellent views of the harbor- definitely check it out! It was a little chilly at times, but a space heater was provided.

  • Reviewer: Shaan

    Comments: This apartment was everything that I needed, nice and quiet and close to public transport (a short walk to Milson's Point or Ferry). Stephen was awesome and communication was quick and efficient, great value for money as well.

  • Reviewer: Allison

    Comments: This property is reasonable value for $ Loved the location and the sun light streaming into the unit. Lovely and peaceful and a good size apartment. If you’re ok with a worn lounge and a shower head that does wet you but not much else ... then give this one a go ... afterall it’s got to be one of the cheapest around so we were ok with these little problems. The hosts provided an efficient friendly service ... so thank you :) Allison and Daniel

  • Reviewer: Jolene

    Comments: This is very nice place to stay for a short trip to Sydney! You can cross the Harbor Bridge by foot, train or bus. There is also a ferry terminal nearby but you need to check the schedule first. Thank you Stephen for opening up your place on Airbnb.

  • Reviewer: Jennifer

    Comments: Spacious apartment in a very promising location, near to the ferry to circular quay, with beautiful Jacarandas in full view down the streets. However, more pride has to be taken in the maintenance and cleanliness of the apartment.

  • Reviewer: Tania

    Comments: Fantastic location and easy to access. Stephen is a professional and knows how to meet expectations. This unit is basic - but this is clearly described in the advertisement so we knew what to expect. Very clean and very quiet. Firm but comfortable mattress. This is our second stay with Stephen - we are in Sydney regularly and will only book through him. Many thanks

  • Reviewer: Brenda

    Comments: Alert! We give honest reviews!!! This place was booked because of the location and other reviews. We came to Australia to celebrity our 25 th wedding anniversary, trip of our life! We were checked in with Steve who was very accommodating and pleasant. He pointed out that the carpet is old but clean. It really does have ripples in it from being so old. I thought, no biggie, we can live with that. Over the course of the first 24 hours of our stay many more red flags surfaced. You cannot turn on the hot water in the kitchen if anyone is using the shower- immediately it goes cold. The oven is weird, no directions on how to use it either. The kitchen floor is not tacked down! Looks lovely in the pictures but it is just splashed down. I walked on it in my bare feet and it came up! Underneath is disgusting! The carpet in the bedroom has a big burn mark in it, which was covered by a bath mat. The bed is hard, not comfortable at all. There was an air mattress on top of the cabinet in the bedroom but it’s too small for the bed. The couch is good looking but has painful springs poking up in 2 cushions. One odd thing is in the bedroom there are side table on either side of the bed, which is nice. The dresser is tucked into the corner, but the side table makes it impossible to open the bottom drawers of the dresser. Awkward! The kitchen utensils were disgusting and we had to wash everything before we used it. The cabinet under the sink is awful as well. We hope this place improves because the location is wonderful.
