We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Hobart. The house was well located in a quite spot away from city noise and traffic, and allowing us to range from Bruny Island to MONA and Richmond and out to Port Arthur.
We had a lovely stay , it was comfortable and easy to find , the host communicated very well , we found the key in the lock box and instructions were easy to follow . It was well located and great cafe at the end of the road . It needs more coat hangers , needs hanging space and hooks for towels , the remote controls need new batteries , I would have liked tissues supplied and perhaps a larger variety of tea . If you are a light sleeper I suggest ear plugs , as you can hear everything movement from the accommodation above .
