the house was nicely furnished and clean and the price was very affordable. It was well stocked with games and tea bags. blankets were nice and warm and rooms were nicely decorated. The coffee shop nearby ( peninsula pantry) was amazing. The location was good, very close to the hot springs. There was enough parking space for 2 cars.

The TV was not working and the remote control to the aircon/heater in the hall had batteries that were corroding. Luckily we found a packet of batteries in the drawer and changed it. There were 3 rooms and we found that only 2 rooms had heaters. . We were told to bring the large panel heater to the corridor to try and heat up two rooms but that heater was not working. The owner then remarked via sms that he was aware that one heater was not working and he had the replacement in Melbourne. We tried to use the electric blanket but there was no power plug on one side of the room and no extension cord to power the blanket on that side. I had 2 guests who were staying with us who had arrived from Singapore and were not used to the cold weather. Thankfully, we found 2 hot water bottles in the cupboard for them to use. It would have been appreciated if we could have been told about the faulty heaters earlier rather than discovering it when we arrived. Even though it was advertised that there were "essentials", no bath towels/ toiletries were provided.
