Trip Down Under

I am a retired LEO and my is taking chemo therapy till the end of the year. After she finishes with her treatments I am going to take her to Sidney where we plan to rent an apartment for a 4-6 weeks stay. We have been twice before but never stayed longer than 2 weeks and never rented an apartment. I would like to get some recommendations as to what part of Sidney to look for rental property. We stayed on Bondi Beach one time and liked that area but after we got there we discovered the hotel where we had rented the room was quite run down.

Any help would be much appreciated.
