What a gem!

My children aged 12 and 18, and myself, had a two night stay is this hidden gem, and we'll be back! We were met in person by host Sam and her doggy assistant Max. They were very welcoming and gave us some great local tips. The cottage is well positioned close to Barangaroo and Darling Harbour to one side, and an easy walk to The Rocks and Circular Quay on the other. We look forward to staying again soon.

Really nice place in an excellent location.

We had a lovely stay here. The location is excellent - right by the harbour and a reserve, and a pleasant walk down to the Rocks. Five minutes walk away from a metro station so getting into town was very easy. The host was friendly and helpful and very prompt to reply to texts. The accommodation was really cute, a historic building with living area and kitchen downstairs (with aircon) and bedrooms (both with aircon) and bathroom upstairs. Comfy beds. There is no wifi which we didn't notice when we booked, but had esims so it wasn't a problem. Would definitely recommend this place to others!

Perfect location. Great apartment.

I came here with my husband and 14 and 15-year-old kids. The house was exactly as advertised. The beds were comfortable and clean. The kitchen was well appointed, but we really didn’t do any cooking since there were fantastic restaurants and cafés very nearby. Sam was a lovely host; very responsive and extremely kind, going so far as to bring treats for us on Christmas Day. The air conditioning worked well, which was essential on some hot days. We felt very safe and secure in the neighborhood. And proximity to the Rocks and Barangaroo reserve was perfect. I would definitely stay here again and I would highly recommend it to any of my family or friends. Thank you, Sam for a wonderful holiday.!!!!

We had a great stay here! The building has a neat history, and they have done a great job of turning it into an apartment. It had everything we could need to even enjoy an extended stay! It has a fully stocked kitchen and laundry. Sam was a fantastic hostess, giving us local recommendations. It's in a great, quiet spot, within easy walking distance of The Rocks and the harbour with all its activities. We loved staying here!
