Ashleigh Jade Clay-Butler, aged 23, sobbed as details of the drug allegations against her were detailed in Wollongong Local Court on Tuesday.

Police will allege Clay-Butler would have known about the drugs given there was only a double bed within the main room with minimal furniture in the rest of the unit.

Clay-Butler is accused of planning to on-supply the drug at street level.

In documents tendered to the court, Clay-Butler opened her Myuna Way front door to police officers on Monday afternoon before allowing them into her home to conduct a search for drugs.

Two known criminals were also inside the home but after being searched were allowed to leave as Clay-Butler said she was the only one living in the unit.

Police found and seized 300mL of GBL in various quantities inside a pink measuring jug, a small blue bottle, a 750ml vodka bottle and soft drink bottles.

Police also found 15 strips of the prohibited drug Suboxone and a pink diary, which officers will allege was a drug ledger.

Clay-Butler was arrested, at which time she admitted to having 20ml of GBL for her own use.

She told police she knew about the pink jug and blue bottle containers but did not know the liquid drug inside them, which police allege was "hard to believe" as she had little furniture in her home.

Clay-Butler denied knowing about the vodka bottle and its contents despite it being found next to her bed.

She also admitted the pink diary was hers but denied owing the 15 Suboxone strips.

She admitted ownership of the Vodka Cruiser box, police said.

"It was apparent that as more items of interest were located and the amount of prohibited drugs rose, [Clay-Butler] began denying any knowledge of the said items," court documents said.

Clay-Butler was taken to Wollongong Police Station where she was charged with drug-related offences and remanded in custody.

In court on Tuesday, Clay-Butler's lawyer Matthew Ward suggested his client's behaviour when she opened the door and invited police into her home was contrary to her knowing there was a large amount of drugs in the home.

He also said his client was not seen to be writing in the diary despite having admitted it was hers.

Mr Ward suggested bail conditions could mitigate any concerns about Clay-Butler committing further offences and said she had strong community ties and mental health issues.

However, Magistrate Jillian Kiely refused to release Clay-Butler from custody on account of her criminal history, combined with her being on bail at the time for unrelated offences.

She will return to court on August 19.
