STUNNING SYDNEY HOME 8

Building site next door. So close to the living room windows. SUPER NOISY ALL THRU THE DAY! AWFUL! Woke up every morning to that dreadful noise. The place is set up very poorly. No powerpoints in the living room so I needed to rearrange the whole room (ie move the table to the other side of the room) to get power to my laptop. No aircon and very stuffy so even though the weather was not warm the room was unpleasant. (And the fans were useless and very dusty). Lots of other irritants. And when I called the number to ask for help, I got no response for 24 hours.

At the time I am writing this review we visited 60 countries and NEVER EVER we left a bad review to the property we stayed in. We just simply not the people who like to complain or be negative.But this time I have to make VRBO and travelers aware of this. We were having constant stress staying first at “Stunning Home 4” with cockroaches throughout all 13-night stay in every room. That was so disappointing and disgusting. And then we moved floor up to “Stunning Home 8” for another 8 nights. No cockroachs there, must be due to higher floor and it was obvious they did pest treatment prior to our check-in, since we already been addressing this issue. Unfortunately Home 8 had another even more annoying issue. No hot water to take shower. We haven’t had hot or warm water for first 4 nights at all. We had to go to different apartments every night in this building to take shower, had to deal with plumber coming during our stay few times. And when it seamed like he fixed the water heater there were not enough hot water ever to take quick shower for 2 people. That was so stressful. I had to worry every single night if I will be able to take warm shower. This was horrible. Btw the plumber and the girl who were sent from the host to check on issues we had were both very cordial and tried their best to help. But they are just employees. Our biggest frustration is with the Host of this property.They just don’t care, nor they offered us at any point any reimbursement or option to move.

The location was excellent. The actual stay let the overall experience down. In short - The bed was as hard as the floor. The simple things that make a BnB a great experience were lacking ... no tissues ... poor coffee selection ... a non smart TV... Principally the bed and bedding were the primary complaint from our end. The doona insert was ....stained.... really not acceptable when it can be replaced regularly from Kmart. Small cheap touches would have made the whole stay much better.... we will not be back.

Stunning location - in my opinion Millers Point and The Rocks are the absolute best areas in Sydney! Cultured and chic. Lovely apartment, perfect for our August stay (I don’t think there is any air conditioning if you are planning a stay in warmer weather). Host is great with communication. Highly recommended.

The apartment was very nice and Clean. Everything seemed recently renovated and new. Only issue was the Noise downstairs! Each night we were there, there was a banging sound like a trash can top was open, and the Wind kept Banging it and waking us up! It was iritating and noisy . Otherwise we liked the area and would consider coming back again.
