We chose Esther’s place because it was pet friendly. The house was very stylish and a great location in New Town (very close to all important amenities). Everything was clean. Quiet street with easy parking. Our only real gripe was that the single heat pump/reverse cycle unit was not really enough to heat the whole house. So it was quite cold in the middle of winter (there was an electric fireplace at the front of the house, but it was the new extension at the back that was cold). Although electric blankets on the beds were great. Worth noting that the host lives here when it’s not rented so there is food in the fridge/pantry and clothes in wardrobes etc. That’s not something we’re used to with Airbnb places we usually stay at, but acceptable to us considering it was a pet friendly place in Hobart (rare).
