We loved the privacy the room and property itself provided. We had long days so it was nice to have a quiet space, we were able to get to sleep in no time. June was absolutely lovely, she left us to it but also would have chats with us so we felt very welcome in her home. We fell in love instantly with the accommodation, it was very clean and the little touches around the room was very nice. We were warm and were provided with everything we needed for the time spent in the accommodation.

    Great location, a two minute walk from the top of the cable car. The room was very comfortable and quiet, and the bathroom is fantastic. Under floor heating, nice shower and great big bath! I could have just spent the night in the bathroom and been quite happy! Hosts were super nice, very chatty and hospitable, although I feel like they would leave you be if that is what you want. I would defo stay here again.

    Great hostel in a quiet but central location. The mattress was extremely comfortable and everything was impecable. The staff was really friendly and let me do an early check in. They have several common areas, one in each floor, and the roof terrance is a huge bonnus. Fully equipped and spacious kitchen. Free bikes to ride around town. I loved this hostel, everything was perfect.

    This hotel had a great location to the city centre, we stayed in a spacious modern room for 2 with comfortable bedding and quiet sleep. We found upon arrival that the buffet style option for breakfast was discontinued however, we still had fantastic options to choose from on the menu and we satisfied with the quality of food served. The staff were friendly abs approachable, answering any questions or queries we had during our stay.

    This was an unexpectedly delightful stop. The hosts where charming and made us feel immediately welcomed. The location was stunning and ultra convenient, notedly for being a 1 minute walk to the top of the cable car depot which delivered is to the CBD in less than 7 minutes. The villa and vista were stunning and there are lovely walks and a quaint village close by. All making this stop an highlight of our trip.
