This charming, compact apartment on two levels has been created at one end of a family home and is set in a beautiful, leafy garden at Taroona, a 10-12 minute drive from the Hobart CBD. No detail has been overlooked in the design and fitout and everything is of a very high quality, from the European kitchen and laundry appliances to the Bakka-style leather armchairs. Ground level comprises the small sitting room, kitchenette with bench for preparation and dining, bathroom and separate toilet. The bedroom is upstairs, with windows on three sides and a cathedral ceiling. Clothes storage is limited but adequate for most travellers and the bed is comfortable. There is a ceiling fan above the bed that equalises the temperature between levels when the heater is on in the sitting room, but my only negative comment is that it did not provide adequate cooling on the mild nights while I was there. In fact, I found the apartment a bit stuffy as the temperature rose. But most of the year, you would be extremely comfortable. Fresh flowers, generous provisions and a warm welcome from my host greeted me on arrival and the apartment was sparkling clean. I would stay here again and strongly recommend the apartment to solo travellers and couples.
