I had an excellent time staying here, the staff are very friendly and always willing to help. The amenities are new and modern and there is a nice rooftop with stunning views of Sydney skyline. The location is great as it is walking distance to many universities. The Wi-Fi and signal was sometimes not very stable in the room but worked fine in other areas of the building. Overall I really enjoyed my time living at Urbanest and would consider the living experience to be one of the highlights of my time in Sydney!!
