Great location and stunning view

The location on Cook St close to the variety of cafes and restaurants on Glebe Point Road and the short walk down to the Blackwattle Bay ferry wharf made the location ideal plus the added charm of the stunning view from the balcony.

Best location!!

I can’t say enough good things about the location! The view is phenomenal, there are grocers, bakers, coffee shops, pubs, restaurants, and multiple parks all within walking distance. There are bus lines and a ferry super close by. There were a couple of problems we discovered upon arriving but the host responded to our email in a timely manner with solutions. We found just about everything we needed in the unit. (I did have to buy note paper and Kleenex, which would have been nice to have in the apartment.) My only suggestions would be to have a designated location for the extra set of keys (took a day or two to find them), the Opal/transit card (we couldn’t find one) and for the instruction welcome manual to be updated. (The info was a mess and outdated, and had conflicting information about preferred way to leave the apartment upon check-out.)

Brilliant location

We loved our time in blackwattle bay. The location was fabulous, easy transport links, parks, the bay, shops and cafes. The view was wonderful and handed the added bonus of free fireworks most nights ( spectacular thunderstorms too) quite steep hill up from the bay and is on 4th floor, so you need to be happy to walk up those ( we were) would definitely use this as a base again.

Dream stay away from home - perfect balance of homely and fancy and comfortable. View was SO stunning and we were lucky enough to see fireworks almost every night. Wished we could have stayed forever. Warren was an amazing host, so helpful and clear in communication and efficient and lovely.

A perfect place to stay in Sydney. Very clean and quiet, lovely view from the balcony, comfortable beds, modern kitchen and everything you need is supplied. Located in a charming, leafy suburb with a direct and easy bus route to the centre. Lots of great ethnic restaurants nearby.Hand-feeding the rosellas on the balcony was a unique experience. We would definitely stay again.
