    Julie is an amazing host! So friendly, welcoming and helpful. The property is in a perfect location near the university, city centre, Otago Museum, Art Gallery and many cafes, restaurants and bars. The rooms in the guest house are lovely, the beds comfy, and everything spotlessly clean. The continental breakfast is plentiful and the dining room sunny and light. This was my second stay and this is now my go-to accommodation in Dunedin!
