Hi Jodie,
Thank you for your review. Glad you enjoyed your stay & thanks for bringing the fridge & oven seal to our attention. We look forward to welcoming you back again.
Generally liked the property and layout. Needs a decent Smart TV that easily works, with volume! Foxtel would be handy too. Should have a clothes dryer for the price. No washing powder (or liquid) for washing machine provided. Very good clothes washer, fridge and dishwasher. Linen would have been handy when being charged $x per night. Beds were comfortable.

We Loved the spot. only disappointed that when we arrived the fridge wasn't on and mouldy. I found the power for the house was off. I turned it on at the power-board on, and had to clean the fridge before we could use it.
The cleaners should have noticed this, and if power is left turned off, they should make sure the fridge is chocked open for storage, to prevent mould forming.

Hi Jeff,
Thank you for your 4 star review. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay & the great location. I apologise that the power was out upon your arrival. This is not something that we switch off, so I can only assume there was some sort of outage. Had you of called our office we could have had this issue rectified immediately. The property was cleaned professionally 3 weeks prior so our cleaning contractors would not have been aware of it. We look forward to welcoming you & your family back again.

Reviewer Comments:
We really enjoyed our stay at Francis Street. Being able to dock our little boat for the week is a treat for us. The house is great. Having the bathroom upgraded is a good. Our only negative is the lounges. Need updating as hard to get out of. Especially for us oldies. Will see you next year. Thank youI would like to say the cleaners need to be more careful. The microwave was not clean and tge bedroom window blinds were very dusty.

We love being able to bring our boat up for some fishing and being able to have use of a private jetty. The house is well appointed but the main lounge seating could be updated. Also the cleaners could do a better job. I had to clean the freezer out as was very dirty. The outdoor furniture could do with a good clean too. But all in all a lovely place.

Reviewer Comments:
The house was very comfortable. The jetty was great to tie our boat up to. The location was great. But the cleanliness of the house was not good. I had to dust and clean before we unpacked. It put a sour taste on what was good accommodation.
