The property is well set up and very comfortable. It had everything we needed for our stay and was extremely cosy in the chilly Canberra weather we had. The bonus is the location which is walking distance to the city centre and to the vibrant Lonsdale St restaurant precinct. It also has excellent parking and is easily accessible to many of the Canberra attractions - we were able to walk to the War Memorial and leave the car at home. Will definitely stay there again when next in Canberra. ##### Carol N.

Well, I'm giving it a 10/10! The property was clean, spacious and in a good location. The host was very communicative. The host even provided fresh milk, bread and eggs on arrival; these little touches make all the difference (it's a shame other hosts don't recognise this simple gesture). I would definitely stay here again. ##### Balbir B.
