Guest review
8.0Amazing views, excellent facilities and wonderfully comfortable bed
Excellent host and great value for money
8.0It is clear that Don puts a great amount of effort in to making it a nice place to stay. Every cupboard has some sort of "bonus" in it that I didn't expect and highly appreciated. I feel like my money was well spent and would have felt the same if the price was higher. Good on ya Don.
− The double bed was okay but the two single beds were both way too soft and not very nice for an adult to sleep in
Great views but lacking some essentials like reliable Wifi.
4.0The view was beautiful. There was bacon, bread, milk, eggs and margarine in the fridge. A nice thoughtful gesture. We didn't use any of it though as we had our own groceries.
− The Wifi was extremely slow and patchy, not ideal for someone who has to work whilst traveling. The beds were very spongy and gave us sore backs. The lighting in the lounge room does not work. Very high on a hill, impossible to go for a walk or to the shops.
Great location & host Don, & spectacular views
