The view was epic. The apartment was great. Big issues with the check in. I never received a code to get in the box. This is the second time this has happened to me in less than a week.
Spacious, well-maintained house on a quiet street. Easy access to the beach, stores, restaurants. View is dazzling, as described and shown in the photos. Watched the boats come in at the end of the Sydney-Hobart Yacht race! Kitchen had a well-stocked pantry and all the gear 2 chefs needed for our 6 week stay. Karen Fraser, the rental manager, was a treasurer - very responsive and attentive. Loved Hobart and our stay.
The owner kept us updated before our stay and entry to property was easy. Upon arrival we were stunned by the magnificent views. The house had all we required for our stay and was very suitable for our family group. 2 Adults and baby downstairs and us grandparents upstairs. The house was well designed for sectioning off areas for a young infant. Central location to all shopping needs and tourist activities. Lovely to sit and relax, absorbing the night setting in Hobart, on the balconies after a day out.
Thank you Karen for a wonderful stay.
