We stayed for 3 nights. This is a special house renovated from a church's Sunday school. High ceiling, spacious, special oriental mix western design set up by host, with a nice garden full of all sort of herbs or plants good for cooking. Super well equipped kitchen, we find everything including sauce, herbs, pans, even blender and even picnic basket! We even did BBQ in the garden, and if you like dog, Judy's dog Pipper could be around and she is playful.
Judy was really helpful, we asked a lot of questions before our trip and she helped us to solve a lot of questions even she doesn't have the answer herself. She tried to meet us face to face on arrival and give us some help to start off our stay. When we have instant questions like booking taxi and where to shop for food and gift, she tried to answer us ASAP with detailed answer, which was really helpful! I feel like she is a local friend more than a host. I feel very secure and pleasant with her assistance.
The house is clean, we had good sleep. Apart from the garden and kitchen, bathroom is one of my favorite place. It was bright, warm with heater, and with a corner you can sit down for doing body lotion! We returned our car on 2nd day and walked to Elizabeth street for shopping and food. It takes 15 mins which is acceptable. But walking back from the pier to the house took 40 mins (up hill a bit), so we took taxi another day which cost around AUD$10. So if you are looking for convenient, the location may be a concern. If not, this is a great place to stay with a great host.
