Steffan, the host, went out of his way to give us the keys personally as we arrived late. Apartment is very central, clean and well equipped. Would recommend to anyone
Close to the lake and all the main places of interest. Comfortably furnished, quality amenities, great outlook and excellent Indian food next door! Will stay again.
Clean and neat. Well presented with everything you could need.
Safe. Quiet. Lovely morning sun.
Walking distance from all galleries, the Lake and parklands that surround tbe area!
The neighborhood was nice, and had a few amenities within walking distance. Check in was difficult as the video sent didn't work, and took a bit to reach the owner. Laundry was left in dryer and washer and while we went ahead and completed washing and folding - received no response from the owner. Other than that, a straight forward rental. Nothing special but served the purpoose.
Our stay was great, perfect location to everywhere we needed to go. Steffan was amazing and so great to deal with, also let us check out later. Overall we were very pleased with the place & stay. Will definitely be booking if we are in Canberra again 😊
