The Neighborhood:
The Rocks is Australia’s colonial history on display in modern-day Sydney. European settlers first arrived at this harbor landing in 1788 and since then The Rocks has been the site of crooked slums, cobbled walkways, hidden courtyards, and convivial pubs. Stories seem to hide in every nook and cranny, but The Rocks’ petite size makes unravelling their yarns an easy (and wholly enjoyable) task for urban sleuths and aimless wanderers.

International Airport: 20 minutes by cab without traffic

Opera House / Circular Quay: 5 minute walk
Bondi Beach: 25 minutes by bus

The apartment we were allocated was not the same as in the photo. There was no bed made up for my son. The views from the rear windows are not as expected at all, the rear yards are disgusting. The coffee was stuck together and unusable.
I stay in Sydney often and I personally would not stay here again.

NEVER EVER we left a bad review until this stay
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.
I had a fantastic stay here. The location is excellent, within easy walking distance of The Rocks, Circular Quay, Barangaroo and the CBD, which made getting around Sydney incredibly easy.The hosts were very kind, responsive and quick to help with any requests. Check-in was seamless, with clear instructions that worked perfectly. The apartment itself was clean, bright and very comfortable throughout our stay.I would absolutely recommend staying here. The only thing worth noting is that there is construction work behind the building. That said, I was generally out during working hours, so it did not affect my stay at all.
