Brilliant location and exceptionally comfortable digs

This place was exactly what we were looking for. It had enough beds for the each of us. And boy, the beds were comfortable! The stairs are a bit tricky, but the character to this old, well kept home was beyond charming. The location was amazing. A water view from one of the bedrooms. A few minutes walk and we were in The Rocks, Circular Quay, and in about 15 minutes we were the heart of the CBD. We recommend this to any and all who are wanting to experience Sydney.

Black Mold, musty and Safety Issues•First thing that you notice when entering is the overwhelming smell of Must/Mold. Look straight up from the back door and you’ll see the mold from the leaking roof. •Owner used wall tiles instead of floor tiles on the bathroom/shower floor; slipping hazard•Front door is double keyed and is difficult to lock/unlock. On average it takes 30 seconds to turn the bolt. The front door also has no weather stripping. It’s a busy sidewalk out front and you will hear the people outside as though they are in the living room with you.•The beds sit directly on the floor. Be prepared for insects in the bed•Hot water runs out after 5 to 10 minutes•The only heat/AC are in the 3 bedrooms.

Charming home

The house has a cute layout. The back door entrance lets you into the kitchen and dining area. There is a bed and bathroom on this level. The front door enters into the 2nd level living room area, with the second bath on this level. The third level has two bedrooms. The stairs are steep and narrow. It was very clean, and the host was very responsive to any questions we had. Would stay here again. It’s a great location.

Staying at the rocks

The location of this property was excellent for us as we were catching a cruise boat. We were able to walk from the property to the Cruise Terminal also to the Opera house. It wasn’t easy getting into the place but we sorted it out the layout of the place was good and the kitchen and bathrooms were very good.

Classic old terrace

The location was unreal. As other reviews have said, there are two steep flights of stairs but this was no problem. Everything works andxthe house coped with 30mm of rain in 15 minutes!! The only thing I thought could be mentioned is that the tv isn't a smart tv but in this modern device age that wasn't a problem.

We loved our stay. There was a lot of room and it was warm. The heat pumps are great! It was easy to walk to the train station or corner shop and close to the city centre. The stairs are a little narrow and there’s 2 lots of them so I wouldn’t recommend for anybody that couldn’t do stairs but other than that we had a lovely stay, it has everything you need in it and it was very nice and clean.

The location of this property is the best part about it. Easy walk to the Opera House, the Harbour Bridge and the hustle and bustle of The Rocks and Circular Quay. Communication with the owner was a bit challenging. Not sure if that was a VRBO site thing or if they just chose to not respond when I tried to contact them before our booking.

Great Location

The location is perfect for a weekend in Sydney- easy to walk to Darling Harbour and Circular Quay. The location is what you’re paying for as the house itself is a bit dated and amenities super basic. Only bath towels provided and these were the thin type with some of them having Playboy on them! Extra pillows in cupboards but no pillowcases. Hot water in the middle level bathroom very temperamental. We were there on a hot weekend and the house was hot- just one small fan in the lounge but thankfully aircon in the bedrooms which worked well. Overall we enjoyed our stay but for the price, don’t expect luxury.

Great location

We had a great stay. Parking can be tricky but Lisa assisted with arranging permit for 2 of the 3 days stay. Beds were comfortable. House could do with a bit of TLC mainly in the courtyard area and some upgrading of facilities such as providing an outdoor setting. These old houses can be tricky for smaller children or people with mobility issues due to the very steep and narrow steps so keep this in mind. Front door can only be locked with a key meaning that when I wanted to go out I either had to leave without a key or leave the people at home locked in. Would stay here again!

Passable but disappointed.

The pictures doesn't reflect the reality. The house need some repairs and a good coat of paint. The stairs aren't just steep but also very narrow. And the backyard was full a weeds, not a place you would like to have a nice coffee or a glass of wine. But the location was great.

This property does not match the description or photos and is in very poor condition. The house was very dirty and not at all suitable for anyone with mobility issues. There is no mention about the steep stairs on the ad and I think this needs to be disclosed, the listed property compared to the actual property is very different and not in a good way. It also advises that there is parking on site. There is no parking. The cupboards were broken and the oven didn’t work.

Property mis-represented

The property is strategically presented and hides the true condition of the layout of the unit. You enter the unit from the back yard gate next to rubbish and recycling containers. The back yard patio area is not suitable to use for relaxation as there is no furniture and the brick patio flooring needs to be cleaned of moss and dirt. Upon entering at the ground level, you have to pull you suitcase up one or two sets of stairs as the bedrooms are on the 2nd and 3rd level of the apartment. The description never mentions 3 levels, only a ground level and a second level. The stairs are incredibly steep and narrow making it difficult to carry a large suitcase to a bedroom. One could easily fall and injure oneself. The living room is on the 2nd level and the kitchen is on the ground floor so using at least one flight of stairs is unavoidable which, as elderly people, we saw as a real safety concern. Communicating with the owner was thru e-mail and responses to questions were delayed or non-responsive. I would be happy to provide pictures to verify the descriptions of the entrance and the back yard. We have used VRBO in the past and have been happy with what we reserved as the property met our expectations based on what was described.Gary Brog

Great location but work to be done

Great location and Lisa was very responsive. The property was in a great central location. The apartment itself was unkempt and untidy and could do with a decor makeover. The cupboards had doonas just shoved on the shelves, not folded. The kitchen had odd assortment of old coffee cups and glasses. Toilet paper rolls piled up ontop of the fridge when there was ample cupboard space for them to be stored. The downstairs shower was full of mould. There were filthy plastic faded flowers on the windows sills, at the back door and inside the house. The back court yard pavers were full of weeds. No attention to detail anywhere. The apartment is advertised to sleep 6, there was 5 of us. Only seating for three people in the courtyard, and only for 4 people in the lounge. A great position but we were disappointed, just needed a good clean and tidy up.
