Tom was the most incredible host. He had a written pdf with advice and travel tips, the fridge was stocked with yummy goodies to help me settle in for my 2 week stay. The room is comfortable and warm during my winter stay. I was studying nearby at the sustainable learning centre so was an easy walk in less than 10 mins (although be prepared for the short sharp climb for a 100ms upon leaving). Ubers came easily if needed or you can walk down the mountain to Hobart via a trail nearby. Mt Nelson is quiet and it suited me due to the location. It was lovely listening to water in the creek at night, watching the wildlife from balcony and the peace and quiet. It is a small room perfect for single people or a couple who need a place to stay while exploring during the day.
