Excellent base for 4 night visit to Adelaide

Location v convenient. Buses from end of street to most sights. Fully equipped cottage with washer, dryer, dishwasher and breakfast supplies. Huge comfortable bed. Spacious room, nicely furnished.

Nothing really.

A lovely quiet central place to stay; lovely host

9.0

Great location. Very close to the botanical Gardens and the zoo. Secure and quiet, a lovely central spot to stay for five nights.

It is worth noting that you have to park your car on the street. This was not an issue for me from a security point of view as the street is not a main street, It’s almost a service road; however as it is a tree line street your car may may be covered with animal or tree sap each morning. Bed lamps need to be cleaned.

Lovely place. Needs a dust.

7.0

The Host was very nice, we had everything we needed.

Very quirky. Only two beds, but enough sofas and armchairs to seat 10, dining room table with 6 seats. Apparently the adjoining cottage can see through at night if the blinds aren't down. Kitchen was filthy. No access to power points around bed.

Cosy cottage in a great location.

8.0

Cosy stylish cottage with all the comforts of home, in a fantastic location close to the Botanic Gardens and city, but away from the main road in a lovely and quiet street.

Nothing, it really suited our stay.

A delightful, comfortable stay at a perfect location, with everything we needed.

10.0

The location is perfect, and safe. The bed is awesome. The shower is about the best we have ever experienced in our travels. At night it is absolutely quiet, not one external sound - fantastic! The layout of the accommodation is just wonderful. Things like having ample bench space in the bathroom for two people means a lot, and is rarely found elsewhere. Also, having a walk in closet and hanging space for clothes is fantastic, this also is rarely found elsewhere. Our five nights there were a joy, and a delight. We would very highly recommend to anybody.

We could not access the wifi nor the streaming options, however I am 76 and quite prepared to accept that this may have been solely due to my own technical limitations. The free to air TV was fine, and ok for our purposes, so no big problem.
