Gem of hideaway in the heart of town!
Yellow door is situated in a great location, central to everything.It is well equipped, with the owners going out of there way to make sure every little possibility is catered for. Lovely warm cosy unit. We frequently left the car and explored the history of the area its eclectic shops and scenic areas. I recommend. Very well priced, with the owners being very diligent if needing to communicate through Stayz. My only concern was, mainly as I’m aging, the need for a rail on entryway stairs.

Good value and an excellent location
It was cosy, a little dated, but everything we needed at a fair price. The kitchen includes an oven, stovetop and microwave so everything we needed to save some money by cooking ourselves. Excellent position, would stay there again.

cute and convenient
A cute little cottage in a very convenient location. Hugo is a great communicator and offered early check in and late check out which we didn't use but was much appreciated. Close enough to walk to the train (700m) if you don't mind a little hill on the way. Woolies is across the road and the main street a few metres walk where you can catch the local bus or the hopper bus. The sunroom was a little noisy as it is close to the street and the path to the bins was slippery in the rain so take care. Loved the easy keyless lock. The weather ranged from 16C to over 30C and the house was comfortable in all temperatures. Would stay again and recommend to others.

A convenient location for access to walks and to shops.
The accommodation was clean and comfortable and the host is very pleasant and accommodating. The location is acceptable if you are staying for a night / passing through but it is not desirable as a holiday destination.

Don’t judge a book by its cover
The outside looks a bit dilapidated but looks can be deceiving. Inside is a mixture of old and new. Very comfortable, clean & cosy! Great for couples or with maybe 1 child. Close to everything and good value for money. The hosts communication is great and the incidentals like free coffee, tea and extra are really thoughtful. We would definitely stay again if we go to the mountains again.

Katoomba gem return
An ideal place to decompress or base to explore. I'm a return stayer and always appreciate this place's homeliness (coffee plunger with coffee snd tea always a welcome sight), cleanliness and proximity to everything the mountains has to offer. Etter than a hotel or motel eoom! And thanks for the unexpected and welcome offer of a late checkout. Great communication.

Loved it!
My partner and I had a really nice time. The property is clean, cosy and had everything we needed. There’s lots of parking nearby and It’s so close to the shops with lots of cute cafes close by. It rained the whole weekend however we were warm inside and loved the access to Netflix as well! Hugo made the process very easy and communicated so well with us. Thanks very much! 🙂

Great location and good value
This small property is ideal for two and has everything needed for a comfortable stay. We appreciated the provision of pantry items and shower supplies. It is in an ideal location close to cafes, restaurants and shops with supermarket close by. One negative was that we found the steep front steps difficult and felt we needed a railing.

Convenient and tidy.
Perfect cottage for weekend for a couple. Never used the car as conveniently located to shops, restaurants and walks. Whilst it didn’t look much from the street, inside was spacious, clean and warm. Bed a little hard but kitchen well equipped.
