Full breakfast included was a bonus. Kevin is a friendly and helpful host. My room was at the front of the property so traffic noise was an issue for me. Very comfortable bed and crisp linens. Easy walk into town from this quirky and historic accommodation

I stayed in the self contained cottage. Lowena was in walking distance of every where I needed to go (Salamanca to South Hobart). Kevin is a welcoming host. The accommodation came with breakfast, shared at a big table with other guests. Great value.

Kevin is a fabulous host. Sitting around the cafe table in the morning with the other guests and Kevin and his breakfast was a highlight. The room is a very good size. It had everything we needed. Yes its old snd quite imperfect, but has charm. We enjoyed our stay. Try the Japanse Restraunt just around the corner, unbelievable good value.

The breakfast was excellent and the owner very flexible willing to provide it early. The facilities are well kept except missing some details like towel racks in the shared bathroom. The towels themselves need to be upgraded. Overall It’s still good value for the money.
