I stayed in this apartment for three days and had a great experience. The place was clean, well maintained, and exactly as described in the listing. The location was convenient, with everything I needed close by.The apartment was well equipped and perfect for a short stay. The bed was comfortable, and I felt very relaxed and at home during my visit. Check-in was easy, and communication with the host was smooth and friendly.I would definitely recommend this apartment and would happily stay here again!

Great view close to Hobart Centre. Very hilly - hence the view. Driveway very steep but managable.

Great location, close to the city with spectacular views. Clean and well equipped. Communication was available but not required. Driveway a little challenging, steep and narrow, awkward with traffic.

Yes, plenty of dishes and cookwear. Could've dfone with something to actually scrub the pans after use. We nearly ran out of washing up liquid.
