I loved my stay here. The staff is super helpful and very friendly. I made some very nice friends there during my stay. The accommodation is a little pricey but it's Sydney and the location is amazing. When you start living in the city you will appreciate how much the location matters. It is a secured building and being within the campus of Sydney Uni you get twice the security. Urbanest also organizes a lot of events and site-seeing programs for its residents which is a plus if you are just moving into Sydney and you don't know many people and also gives you a chance to explore the city. I would highly recommend this place to others.

The study rooms, pool tables, and ping pong tables are a nice touch, my room had the best view and was clean and close to my university. The staff was kind, friendly, and always willing to assist, were constantly cheerful and eager to chat with you. All in all, I had a wonderful experience here and would definitely suggest it to anybody.
