    Slats below mattress can fall off their supports leading to a 'sink hole' in the bed. Some noise at times.

    Amenities, hot shower was working nicely, location is great.value for money is superb.

    This property is very small, for two people, it’s not ideal for more than 2/3 nights with two people. The bed is a small double bed, not a normal size one, so very uncomfortable. This place is more suited for 1 person. We were travelling and had two suitcases each, there was not enough room to open our big suitcase on the floor. The front of the property looked very bad on arrival, grass was very high, front gate was rusty and old. (The grass got cut the third day we were there) Front window of the house has cardboard stuck to the inside. This made the house look very unsafe and run down. As we entered in there was a few bedrooms, all with locks on them, but it is a not sound proof so we got woken up every morning, the near by street is very load too. We were there 5 days and we did not get fresh towels or new bedsheets. Washing machine is not in the room it is around the back of the house in a garden shed, we did not feel right leaving our clothes there so we went to a local laundry mat. The facilities, were ok, felt I had to clean everything before I used it myself.

    The location was only 15/20 min walk to Randwick. The buses were only 5 minute walk to get to Bondi and CBD. Host was good to communicate with.

    The pillows were flat as a tack and the floor was wet when we arrived. The frontage was pretty run down, made us think we had the wrong place.

    How close it was to Juniors Kingsford. The shower was great.

    Shower pressure was terrible, was just dribbling out of the shower head

    Privacy was great, house and rooms had codes to get in so no worries about random people coming in, was comfortable had a table plus mini kitchenette type area and bathroom in one room

    Run down. Dirty. Unacceptable attitude from staff members. Being made to check in at 5pm. Didn’t even stay in the property. Paper thin walls, could hear the person in the room next door coughing.

    Everything fulfilled my expectations. I would suggest to leave some creamer and sugar for a morning tea/coffee in the pantry.

    The property was relatively cheap and looked cosy and attractive in the advertisement and also in reality

    I had concerns about street parking managed to find some not too far away. The exterior initially gave me reservations however the entrance and room were well presented.

    Convenient Location, Great spacious Bathroom with plenty of quality supplies. I had a peaceful night sleep.

    - The room extremely cold with no heating or insulation. - It wasn’t the most soundproof and we could hear people going in and out at night and in the morning. - Everything felt mostly clean but the facilities were quite worn - peeling microwave, cracks in the counter, dark edges between tiles, scratches in the bed headboard. - There wasn’t a lot of ventilation and the room would get steamy from just boiling water for a few cups of tea - even more so from some light cooking. You could tell this had been a problem in the past too as there were dried water marks / trails on the walls. - Suggestions for small improvements: Bath towels were provided but a bath mat would be helpful. Also, since it was raining it would be nice to have a floor mat at the entrance so as to not track dirt in.

    - Host was very communicative and responsive, even fulfilling a last minute request to check in early the day of! - Location was good, within 1km of two light rail stations. Need to ride about 30 min to get to downtown though. We liked exploring the different neighborhoods nearby too! We also walked to Coogee Beach to start the Coogee to Bondi walk, it wasn’t too far. - Shower temperatures were great - got hot really fast which was perfect in the rainy weather. - Heated electric blankets were cozy. - Induction stove was effective for our needs, and all the cookware and dish ware provided was great!
