Highs & Lows

  • Design: In a word, perfect. Every little design detail has been perfectly considered. I am obsessed with the wooden baths in the loft rooms and their very own letterpress postcards.

  • Service: Super friendly staff (special shoutout to Ramneek & Keunike).

  • Coffee: consistently delicious.

  • Amenities: Aesop never fails.

  • Location: Super close to everywhere in Sydney.

  • A little noisy (the garbage trucks seem to come by super early each morning), but ok.

  • No parking (you end up spending a fortune on hourly parking tickets).
