Our own ensuite, parking right outside our room, John the host and the breakfast.

A small thing but getting to the parking area because of Hobart's busy one way street system when you first arrive..

friendly reception from John. Great provision of breakfast bread spreads and fruit available 24/7. Quirky decor. Overall I felt like a house guest rather than customer. I had the single room 4 1/2. I wouldn’t hesitate to return

The beautiful old house with antique furnishings and nic nacs and historical photos. The help yourself dining and snacks available. John, the host, a very friendly, welcoming person. Off road parking.

Traffic noise

The room was very comfortable and clean. The common areas were very beautiful and very very interesting. host has travelled a lot and has collected many artifacts and has put up as display there. kitchen was very good with fruits and cookies kept there all the time for your snacking. breakfast was good as well. Was really impressed by the host. Extremely friendly man. Location was very central and hence very convenient.

We stayed one night in a room with ensuite and another night where we had to use common baths. Ensuite really needs upgrade it is very dated. Common toilets and baths didnt have soap dispenser beside wash basins (only one had). We had to carry wet soap back from toilet back to the room. That was bit annoying.

Freedom to use kitchen as my own, personal welcome and friendliness of John, excellent location and wonderful to be able to park my car. John painstakingly helpful re re£parking my car after checking out so I could go off on Port Arthur Day Trip.

Had parking. Bed comfortable. Kitchen and dining accessible and a good continental breakfast provided. Walking distance to town, food and port.

old world charm, walking distance to waterfront, basic but generous breakfast

Traffic noise, not all rooms have ensuite

Quirky but tasteful decor, in the style of English BnBs. Comfy beds, clean amenities, dining room for guest use - mainly breakfast but we did notice people bringing in fish n chips one evening. Friendly host. Easily walkable to at least 2 eating establishments. The Duke pub was very pleasant for our first evening meal with tasteful jazz music and nice wood fired pizza and other fare. We had a beautiful clear morning and could see Mt Wellington through our bedroom window. The breakfast offerings were good with cereals, toast, coffee, tea. Would stay here again.

Be aware there are stairs to many (most) bedrooms so if you have elderly or less ambulant people that may pose a problem especially from the car parking out the back. We booked the self contained room with bathroom. It had been modernised however could do with some hand rails near the bath/shower entry as it is an over-bath style shower. High to step out of in particular. Might be problematic for some less agile people. There are other easier access shared facilities on that floor so could use those but maybe the point is to be able to safely use your own bathroom. The location is on a busy intersection so be aware there will be street noise. Did not bother us. Too tired.

Very comfortable bed - good shower - clean.

On a noisy road.

A great place to stay at the heart of Hobart and excellent value for money. The owner John was friendly helpful and generous. We particularly enjoyed the continental breakfast which was complementary to our stay - it was a great way to start the fully packed day. Thanks!

The place was a bit dated but noise isolation was good. You could hear some subdued talking from other rooms but they were not loud to be distracting.

very friendly owner

distance from the city

Felt so welcome. Continental self serving breakfast is so well organised allowing for independence and choice. Use of kitchen any time to make a drink. Cookies and fruit available for all guests if wanted. Parking private at back door with own key entry to come and go. Lovely old house with some English style as well as Asian decor. Lovely friendly stay.

Enjoyed all.

Beautiful house with a great vibe. John the host is very accommodating and for breakfast there was a great selection.

Nothing

Good location, facilities and cosy old place

Small shower, slow faucet in the sink

Kids loved the stocked kitchen. John was very helpful and accommodating

Bed wasn't the most comfortable

Easy to walk to city and docks. Lovely historic home. Helpful/ friendly owner.

beautiful old building, quaint and full of character. fantastic host, fantastic breakfast facilities and dining area with really delicious jams, a great variety of cereal, filter coffee, teas etc … the breakfast offering were above and beyond and is not time limited.

the location means that significant street noise is unavoidable, earplug are essential

Perfect host! Great location close to town. Amazing breakfast & food facilities. Recommended to others.
