We were a family of 4 that stayed in this property for a week. The property was well-located in Hobart. However, that’s where the good news ended for us.
A word of warning to anyone considering this property….. DO NOT STAY HERE!! The property is in far worse shape than it is advertised……. The property was dirty, grimey , severely under-maintained, unsafe and several key amenities broken or missing. Quite frankly, We would have received a better experience at a backpackers hostel. As well, a number of items that were listed as being included in the property were not to be seen.
To assist in explaining our opinion and to help Airbnb users not to fall into this trap as we experienced, see below a list of issues that we had:
- mould around bathroom sink and shower
- Rear door lock is jammed in ‘open’ position
- Oven was filthy on arrival
- Rusty vegetable peeler (needed to go and buy our own so we could prepare our kids’ meals)
- knives were all blunt
- Toilet roll holder broken
- Toilet seat broken on one side
- cobwebs in corner of the ceiling above the stairwell
- missing desktop computer (not as advertised)
- missing dryer (not as advertised)
- broken door latch on washing machine, with no instructions as to how to open it
- outdoor Laundry is filthy and infested with leaves
- Handle on kitchen tap is missing
- No light bulb in desk lamp
- Master bedroom door latch is jammed inside the door
- bowls in kitchen were dirty (had to clean them ourselves so we could use them)
- mattress in master bedroom is sagging
- single bed mattress in adjacent room has springs poking through
- someone’s clothes are in the mater walk-in robes (hygiene issue)
- wheelie bins were completely full on arrival, so we had nowhere to put our rubbish (apart from the small kitchen bin)
