2 nights at Bellevue Hill
Property has been renovated which was good and everything worked well. Has no air conditioning and it was very hot in Sydney during our stay. Property has some portable fans however could not locate a power point in the bedroom which would have helped with the hot night. Location was good as we had a function in Rose Bay

Good, but underwhelming…
Property was clean, and generally a good layout - the dining table clutters an already small kitchen/ lounge area. The pictures portray more natural light than in actuality. We found there was an issue with the water flow in the shower (which we passed on) - takes a significant amount of time to warm up and then has terrible water pressure, if any. The id requirement seemed a bit over the top and unfortunately after we’d made the ‘non refundable’ booking, the host notified us that there was a fire safety check early on our first morning - understandably this is necessary and although only took a few minutes was very disappointing to have to deal with on our weekend away. We would’ve appreciated the host being more up front or giving us the option to make another booking especially as they wouldn’t compromise on timing. Good location and easy check in/ check out process. The property is fine, some more attention to detail would benefit but our experience certainly didn’t live up the expectation that the listing created/ reads as.

Not what it seems.....
There are plenty of pictures showing a light and airy apartment however, what it did not show was that it was in fact, what could be considered, a basement flat bounded by other apartment blocks and the road and therefore very little natural light. Internally the flat was laid out ok but did not have a dining table and more importantly was not particularly clean with dust built up on blinds and not used surfaces, stains on the floor and sofa and residue in the washing machine, It is managed by Homehost who did react and attempted to resolve the cleanliness issue but unfortunately we were not prepared to hang around whilst it was cleaned. Anyway we checked out early as we found the whole experience pretty depressing and moved to a 1st floor flat with sea views. We told Homehost we had checked out and requested some compensation if the flat was let again which Hoemehost was happy to do.... however, when it came to it following the letting of the flat he referred us back to Stayz and so reneging on his commitment
