Disliked: Cleanliness
Amazing location, so close to shops, transport, water, etc. The house was great, however wasn’t very clean on arrival and unfortunately no cleaning supplies left for us to make it suitable. The beds were comfy, the kitchen has everything we needed for a long stay, and the location was second to none. An aircon would’ve been great as the house did get hot during the day giving us some uncomfortable nights but that was not a big deal.
Fantastic location, plenty of room and facilities.

Cute cottage, compact but nicely done
Modern interiors to cute cottage, no real outdoor space and you are not allowed to use the car space on the lot. The house is nice inside but a bit cobwebby. Location is reasonable but on street parking is a problem and very tight streets. Biggest issue for us was how cold the house was- didn’t really heat up in the 2 nights we were there. The elector radiator downstairs isn’t enough- it has a gas bayonet and a gas heater should be provided instead. Then it would be fine.

Great location - poor cleanliness
A good property well located. Only concern was related to some cleanliness issues. The fridge and oven could do with a much better clean.

Could be great
The house is very nice, the neighborhood also, in fact, everything is great however, there was so much rubbish left behind that the bins had their lids open and there were bags of rubbish next to the bins. Nowhrere for us to put our rubbish and recycling and nowhere to park our car as the rubbish took up part of the space. We emailed to advise but never got a reply. Some badly positioned door stops too!! to contact.

This is a wonderful home
We really liked it … it’s a fantastic place in a great area. Convenient to the Balmain shops/restaurants and the ferry pickup point at Balmain East. It’s a bit noisy when cars drive by or when the neighbors are chatting, but that’s minor all things considered. Would definitely go back again.
