BNE visit for family wedding

This property was well situated for the purposes of our trip. It had great access to the train and buses and was within walking distance to the river and shopping center. The kitchen had everything we needed. There were 6 of us staying in the house so having the toilet and the shower in one bathroom was a minor challenge but not insurmountable. Great to have an iron, washing machine, and hairdyer. Aircon and fans super helpful in January heat in BNE.

Short stay to catch up with friends

The property looks much nicer in photos than it actually is. It is clean and the kitchen and laundry are quite good. For everyday crockery and cutlery there is not a lot so you either have to wash dishes by hand or run a half empty dishwasher. There are lots of extra plates and glasses up in high cupboards but these are all matched very individual sets so we preferred not to use them as it would be impossible to replace anything if there were breakages. There is just one bathroom and its smaller than most ensuites and needs updating. There is nowhere to put anything down, just a sink and the shower is really small but water pressure good. Fortunately, there were just the 2 of us to use it as its not adequate for the 6-8 guests that could be accommodated. We only used the master bedroom, and the bed was ok, not great, and the pillows were old and flat and very uncomfortable. We both had sore necks after just one night. Other beds are all singles. These bedrooms are in a covered verandah area and flooring has gaps so not mozzie proof. Most of the furnishings are old and shabby. Verandah and outdoor furnishings nice but it's overlooking a very busy intersection and railway is close by, so it is very noisy. There is parking for 4 cars but it's difficult to get on and off the parking space as the road is narrow and a way street and parking pad raised so you need to be careful of car undercarriage. The surrounding gardens are unkept and very scruffy. Overall disappointing.

Excellent location to shops and transport

Everything was great except the bathroom was too small. A second toilet would be appreciated in the future.

So good in so many ways

A great stay, in a family friendly home, in a brilliant location. We had a very late arrival and found Caroline’s self check in instructions spot on. The house was well equipped and absolutely made our stay which was for a family wedding. Will definitely stay again.
