The Sydney woman allegedly killed by a man accused of going on a stabbing rampage in the CBD has been described as a "true delight".

On Wednesday, police said 24-year-old Michaela Dunn from Sydney's inner west "had sustained injuries and was pronounced deceased at the scene" when they found her in a Clarence St unit.

One of Ms Dunn's friends, Joan, described the 24-year-old on Twitter as a "true delight" and "incredible".

Her mother told Nine she was a "beautiful girl from a beautiful family" and "very much loved".

A statement from Police said officers were conducting "proactive patrols" in Sydney CBD following the stabbing of a 41-year-old woman allegedly by Mert Ney and were alerted to another injured woman in a unit on Clarence St.

"The family of the woman whose body was located in an apartment in Sydney CBD yesterday have requested privacy," the statement said.
