    Out of town location

    The apartment was quite dark with little natural light or ventilation and it was hard to regulate the temperature, particularly overnight when the aircan was switched off. A sieve in the kitchen would have been useful. Car is an absolute essential.

    Quiet location on a hill overlooking the town. Apartment had everything needed for a short stay, including many cooking essentials making it easy to self-cater. Everything was very clean and comfortable. Our hosts lived on site and made us feel very welcome.

    A peaceful haven in Wollongong

    The flight of 21 steps, mostly wooden and without handrails, were a worrying slip hazard after and during the rain.

    The name 'Tranquil Garden Apartment ' says it all. A lovely peaceful haven on the edge of a busy town.

    We very much liked the apartment, but won't return because of the difficult access.

    It is 33 steps up to the apartment. They are a mix of wooden and uneven sandstone flagging and no handrail. We were warned it was about 20. However we think that it should be pointed out that access is difficult for the elderly and for anyone who is not surefooted or who is in any way unsteady on their feet.

    Very comfortable. Charming furnishings. Very thoughtful provisions.

    It’s on top of a hill (clue in the address!) so can be a bit of a walk from loop bus and city/beach if you don’t have a car and especially when it’s hot - but Wollongong has a very good taxi and Uber service if needed.

    Immaculately fitted out, tranquil location, excellent hosts - a high quality stay

    Nothing

    Both the studio and apartment are located under/to one side of a residential house. It's a lovely location and only a short distance to town. It's newly renovated to a high standard, and the rooms are fabulous. Easy self Check in with lockbox. Gorgeous bedding, and pretty much everything you could think you might need. Starter breakfast was provided, along with tea/coffee etc. Well set up kitchenette with cook top. The hosts are lovely and would highly recommend a stay here.

    Access up 25 steps difficult but we knew this; handrails would improve safety. Street parking less than satisfactory

    Plenty or room, well furnished, great view, well equipped

    Spetacular spot with a few tweakments needed.

    Be aware that you will not be alone in the house as there is an apartment next door (connected with a closed door) and locals living upstairs - the noise can be a lot sometimes especially when trying to sleep in the daytime. Although the instructions on how to use the airconditioner were clear, it still didn't work sometimes and it can me quite cold inside. Would recommend putting the TV channels in order as they were mixed up with radio channels and it was hard to navigate :-)

    Located in a spetacular place, on the top of the hill surround by trees and exotic birds. The apartment in really spacious with lots of walking room. The piano was a lovely surprise and it's a shame that I'm not a pianist. The huge windows really let the light in and lets enjoy the place completely. There were essentials in the bathroom included. Welcoming snacks are always a sign of a top place and there was a variety. You have all the things you need to make there a homemade meal. The hostess was lovely and helpful.

    The only thing was that it is a bit far from the supermarket and the centre. we had to take a Didi.

    Everything is very nice, comfortable, clean. We really enjoy the space and the place. The owners were very concerned and gave recommendations for places to go and eat

    Location as I did not have my car. Bus too far away. I am 76 so this might have suited a younger person. Steps to access were a challenge after a long day. My brother said he would have trouble getting up there with luggage.

    The booking was for accommodation. Well catered for, very clean.

    There is a flight of stairs from the road up to the apartment with no hand rail. This would not be a problem for most people however I think the website should mention the stairs to alert people, like me, who have some mobility issues.

    The apartment was spacious and comfortable. A lovely sitting room, great for relaxing. The bed was very comfortable. Well set up kitchen and nice bathroom with lots of room. A very nice breakfast was provided

    No fan in the bathroom and the lighting was very dim. Doing makeup was hard! No bin in the kitchen. The doona made us hot. Could hear the owners upstairs walking around.

    very quiet and peaceful. The bed was very comfortable.
