“I was particularly drawn to the studio apartments; they provide a sense of home with kitchenettes and plenty of space. Its position in Potts Point places you amidst a lively atmosphere, near the Royal Botanic Gardens and the Sydney Opera House. The rooftop access during New Year's Eve celebrations is a definite highlight.”
