My mobile phone died before I arrived and I had no idea what the code to lockbox was. I was sitting on the veranda ummming and ahhhing about what to do, then Kathy poked her head out of her front door and said softly "Hello Serena""Your room is down the path around the side and the code to the lockbox is ..".
Thanks Kathy, I was almost going to sleep on your veranda otherwise.
There are steps and then more steps and then a steep narrow path and then the lockbox. Then there's a gate and then more stairs, which brings you to the door then the fly screen and a wonky angle you have to navigate your suitcase into.
I knew I was unfit after I had literally fell into the room, puffing and panting.

It's in a great location, and I found it convenient to access Hobart on foot—it's about a 30-minute walk to the pier. The nearby Pigeon Hole (4 min walk), hanging gardens (10 min walk), and Paesano (10 min walk) were all great. The host was responsive, and the space was very practical and cosy. Good phone/data reception and access to wireless internet.
I didn't have any major issues. A sensor light at the gate would be helpful, but I managed fine without & could use phone if needed. The shard trail out the back I found convenient, but is a little challenging to traverse - however access via the road while slightly longer is fine.

It was a a nice room, very clean.
Almost every thing was supplied
The stairs to the room were hard to navigate, there was not a hand rail for the step flat surface nor to tte stairs that lead into the apartment.
We had to use the hand towel as a bath mat to step out of the shower

The location was perfect walking distance around the Hobart CBD. There was accessible parking and the air bnb was very clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.
The only downside was the climate control. We were lucky to have incredible warm weather in Hobart, however the only way to get air through the room was with the door open, letting all the mozzies in. The windows didn’t open. Perhaps a wire door or similar would allow for the door to open and cool down the room without letting all the bugs in.
5.0 / 5.0
Great location, not too far from city centre. 10-15 minutes walk. Fabulous cafe around the corner for breakfast (Pigeon Hole).
All good
