    Everything. Dan and Mitzi were great hosts, friendly and efficient. My room was super comfortable. The situation was quiet on a no exit road and handy to the bike trails. Breakfast had plenty of choices and was fresh and tasty.

    Beautifully presented, clean, cosy and welcoming. Lovely little touches like cereals left for our for breakfast, speciality tea selection, local honey, plunger coffee (in addition to instant coffee) and some chocolates left for us too. Super friendly hosts and great location just a few minutes drive from QT centre. Great to have the separate unit so we felt like we were staying in our own wee home away from home, quiet location with a stunning view and the sound of the river (and occasional jet boat!).

    Place is cheap, clean with a great location it's legit a 10min walk to everything. And a couple minute walk from an real fruit ice cream truck, four square and laundry mat. The one thing for us was the no aircon we died in the 30 degree heat even with all the windows open. It also next to a hostel and they can be noisy in the deck outside to really late. The owner was really nice and was great to have free parking at the back.

    Large comfy bed with linen and towels included. Great location, close to the city centre, whilst still being quiet and getting a good night's sleep. Lovely clean showers and toilets. Great kitchen and lounge facilities. Helpful staff. Couldn't ask for more from a hostel. Thanks for a great stay.
