Greta and John are lovely, kind hosts. I felt very cosy and safe in their apartment. It’s great for people who, like me, like a very dark environment to sleep in as the blinds block out all light at night. It meant I had a nice deep sleep there, which was much needed. If you like fresh air, there’s great air flow through when you need it too, and no horrible air fresheners like some places! Greta also makes non-toxic cleaning products. There’s a little traffic noise from the road during the day, though it was a lot less bothersome than I was expecting. In fact, when a group of motorcycles went past the sound reverberating through the mountains was surprisingly beautiful! It’s quiet and restful at night and the view of the forest is stunning through the day. It’s so nice to sleep amongst the trees. The kitchen is also super functional and has everything you need. There’s a great walk through the forest heading to Olinda falls just up the road (starting at the primary school) and a nice cafe called ‘Brunch’ just another minute up the road from there. Also spectacular views and nice walks at Kalorama Park, which is even closer. Be warned: John is a hugger! Felt very welcomed there :)
