The property does not match the pictures, it is extremely dark inside during the day, and is poorly maintained. The property was dirty - we found hairs in the shower, a used razor was left behind, and there was thick dust on the TV unit. I had to go through plates to find a clean one as they were all dirty. The blind was broken, which meant we had to sleep with street lights blaring in. I reached out to the property to ask to have this fixed, and they said they’d send a technician out. The blind was never fixed, and we never received a follow up nor an apology. While it has a good location, it’s disappointing that we paid $820 for 3 nights in somewhere that was less pleasant than a hostel. The street noise is also beyond loud, and due to being at a poorly designed intersection you hear constant blaring horns at all hours. We didn’t have a good nights sleep here on account of the light and noise, and I expect a follow up from the property.

“Dank, dark and cold NOT 'cute and cosy'”
We felt that the photographs & title " Cute & Cosy" were very misleading. It was dank, dark, cold and smelly on arrival despite ceiling fans going. We didn't expect to find bars on all the windows and prison like shutters on the windows on the inside ( however as the night wore on we saw the need for these although they did little to block noise). The curtains did not fit any of the windows and did not keep in any heat. We had to use both the fan heater & oil column heater to keep warm. We needed to call the contact number to gain access on arrival as the instructions given were useless and we were only given the exact address un 13/128 Cathedral on the day....there was no security box behind the "unlockable" security door as advised. After an apology on the call for incorrect access info we were able to locate the security lock on one of the barred windows and gain access. Given there is no lock on the security door, which is only metres from traffic lights, and there is only a push button door handle lock on a basic wooden door we did not feel secure particularly as it got dark & pedestrian traffic increased considerably.The noise from the tunnel, traffic & pedestrians was deafening...including the bip bip bip of the traffic lights all night which felt like it was in the apartment.. The quietest room was the toilet which we couldn't block off properly. The apartment was quite dirty, marks on lounge, mould in bathroom & broken tiles, marks on bench near kitchen sink, overloaded power points which were a hazard in lounge & bedroom. The concertina bathroom door next to the kitchen & kitchen sink (with no plug) did not close or lock properly so was very unhygienic. The coffee provided was old & solid in the jar & did not move, we needed to buy our own as we were not going to even try theirs. The bed had an east to west ridge in it & was uncomfortable.

““Sleepless 💤 in Woolloomooloo””
We booked Cute & Cosy for two night and unfortunately had to leave after one night due to the extreme noise levels. The noise from the nearby M1 motorway and the pedestrian crossing signals right outside the front door was absolutely overwhelming. To make things worse, there was loud music and shouting in the evening, and at 5:30 in the morning someone was yelling 📢 outside our door — it honestly felt like they were standing next to our bed. While the apartment itself is small — especially the bathroom, which is very compact. There was a noticeable musty smell upon arrival, which lingered throughout our stay. It also looks rather worn in places. That said, it was reasonably clean and had all the basic amenities we needed. The bed, while quite narrow (approximately 140–150 cm wide), was spotless and came with fresh, comfortable linen. Wifi was fast!

“Convenient location for city stop”
The apartment had everything you needed and the coffee shop opposite was excellent. Quieter neighbourhood than in main centre.

“Acceptable”
Nobody in person, nor a phone number to contact. We had some trouble with luggage but nobody to ask for leaving the luggage until time of check-in. The same on departure date; our flight was at 9 pm and we had to carry our staff the whole day.

The flat was a good size for a short-term rental. Regrettably the drier was not functioning, the microwave was too complicated to use and there was no plug for the sink.

If you're looking for somewhere to rest after a busy day exploring this is ideal. The location is great and is walking distance from harbour and beautiful botanical gardens. The flat is nicely decorated and has all the basics you need. Bed was firm but comfortable with nice linen. Great coffee shop directly opposite.
