Today I found a 2b2b apartment in Redfern, overall I would give it a score of 80 [thumbs up emoji].
Pros:
1⃣️ The apartment is new, with modern decoration, plenty of windows, a large balcony, and located on a high floor, offering a fantastic view!!
2⃣️ It is close to the University of Sydney and the University of Technology Sydney. [side-eye emoji] I tried walking from the apartment to the University of Sydney and it took me 8 minutes, and 16 minutes to the University of Technology Sydney. It feels quite acceptable.
3⃣️ The Redfern train station is just across the road, making it convenient to go anywhere in Sydney. [witty emoji]
4⃣️ Although it is near the city and can be crowded, due to the higher floor and the presence of many residential buildings nearby, it is still relatively quiet. 🌲
Cons:
1⃣️ The shops/supermarkets near the apartment are about a 7-800 meters walk away, and there aren't many small restaurants, which may not be very student-friendly for those who don't cook.
2⃣️ The apartment does not have facilities such as a swimming pool or gym, which can make it easy to gain weight. [bitter emoji]
