    There was milk in the fridge and other things like salt and pepper, cooking oil, plastic food storage containers, lots of utensils etc that make catering whilst away a breeze. Checking in was super easy. The host gave a great list of things to do whilst there, which was appreciated. Everything worked and was beautifully clean. We were very comfortsble.

    We felt the kitchen was a tiny bit under-equipped. You can't be in Tasmania without a cheese knife! Also, we were only able to reach two of the glasses in the cupboard as you needed to be very tall! But these are only small things in a lovely stay.

    Lovely property in a beautiful location. Super-comfy beds and warming/cooling was great. Pademelons and honeyeaters were an unexpected bonus!

    A welcome basket with some little treats.

    We originally stayed here in 2017, and found it superb. This time there were the little extra touches missing unfortunately. Still a lovely place to stay and the views are spectacular, but a few of the little extra's we experienced the first time would make this stay so much better.

    Its a code entry door, and the code provided to us through our online booking was wrong, but the Host was reachable very quickly via phone. If we arriving late at night, this might have caused an issue.

    Location and the view from the hill was beautiful, very homely.

    A screen door on the balcony might be nice to let in the beautiful breeze without having the doors open but this is certainly not a real breaker. I've already recommended this again.

    Location was perfect. Accommodation was extremely clean, comfortable and just what we needed.

    The bed was too soft for me personally. However, I suffer with beds no matter where I travel across the globe. The beds are modern and clean.

    A great location and an excellent apartment if you have a car when visiting Tasmania. I chose this apartment for its features and location, and it did not disappoint. Being a real estate agent from Sydney, I know about properties. So well done on the owner for renovating this delightful 2 bedroom apartment in Sandy Bay's Hills with a short 3-minute drive to Hobart town. The views are wonderful, particularly the changing colour of the building at Wrest Point Casino. The apartment has been renovated and is comfortable. Modern kitchen with all the facilities you would need to cook if you desire. A dining area and a separate lounge room. Large main bedroom with built-ins, second bedroom. Modern bathroom and separate toilet which is preferred. Having access to Netflix and Stan when you want to come home after being out all day touring the island is great bonus and appreciated.

    It would be good to have a dryer in the apartment. The front entrance area to the units could be tidied up. More warning about the stairs and the hilly nature of this part of Hobart would be a good idea - still a lovely place to stay.

    Wonderful view of Hobart, day and night. Great balcony. Clean, extremely comfortable for 2, quiet, warm, tasteful decor. Helpful manager.

    Couldn't figure out how to turn the stovetop on!

    This great little apartment offered us convenient parking, two very comfortable rooms, sensational views and a lovely living area. The view from the apartment is spectacular, especially at night looking at all of the lights over Hobart. All of their additional info re dining/shops was really helpful! This was a really reasonably priced apartment in a great area, easy to find and access and very comfortable.

    It was the coldest December day in 50 years while we were there. A cloth dryer would be nice otherwise washings are hard to dry in the rainy weather.

    The property is located at a nice suburb near the city CBD. Hills Street Grocer is 5 minutes drive away and is an excellent Tasmania grocery supermarket. The property itself has almost everything you need to live comfortably for a week or two. Definitely recommend to others for short term stay in Hobart.
