Clean, central, perfect
Lovely stay. Property was immaculate, everything we needed for a short weekend away. Fantastic location with a short walk to everything we needed. Easy check in and the electronic lock on the door made coming and going a breeze. Great communication from the host. Well priced for the area. Wouldn’t hesitate to come back

Convenient and pleasant
The house is close to the Sandy Bay shops and restaurants and many of Hobart's iconic places. It has everything you need. For us, the bed was a little too firm but our son found the bed in the second bedroom very comfortable, so a matter of personal taste. The host was very accommodating.

Thanks for a great stay!
This cosy house has all you need, including electric blankets on the beds (much appreciated during Hobart's winter!) and a comfortable lounge room. There's a modern bathroom with an excellent shower, and there's a second toilet in the laundry out the back. It's about a 5-minute walk to Sandy Bay's shops and restaurants. The host is helpful and prompt and I'm already looking forward to my next stay.

Great stay, but room for improvement
Great cottage in a great location with lots of character. From first impressions the cleaning unfortunately was a bit of a let down. My partner who is a cleaner noticed that many things were missed in the living areas, including fat on the backsplash, mold in bathroom, moldy coffee in the jar, crumbs in the kitchen draws, dirty microwave and needed a decent vacuum. In our opinion the property needs a proper bond clean to bring this property up to a holiday home standard. There is so much potential to make this an even better holiday property if more attention to detail was taken with the cleaning as we would definitely stay again if the standard of cleaning was improved. Overall there are many positives about staying here including its close proximity to the city, restaurants, cafes and supermarkets. We really liked the comfy couches and the great little fireplace (Unfortunately no kindling and firewood is supplied). The heat pump works well too and if you like to cook this property has a modern fully serviced kitchen.

Comfy quiet cottage in great location
The house was all we expected for our stay in Hobart for the Wooden Boat Festival. Quiet neighborhood, beautifully clean, light and well appointed and an easy walk to Battery Point and Constitution Dock. The bus is two minutes walk if you want to catch public transport to the city.
