Helen’s studio was clean and well presented.
We enjoyed the location being between Rosebud and Dromana. There are some lovely cafes and eateries nearby.
Areas to alert future guests of:
-Wifi was in the weak side, so don’t go there solely relying on it.
- TV signal wasn’t great and there are limited channels. We failed to watch one movie without the picture constantly breaking up.
- Breakfast which is included consists of muesli and milk. First day we got bananas, milk, yogurt and OJ. The yogurt and milk were not replenished but that could potentially be because we kept our room locked. Being an outdoor standalone studio we felt we needed to lock the door for security. I would seek further clarification from owner as to what is on offer for breakfast if it’s important to you.
- Do not assume the BBQ is exclusively yours. It is located on the owners balcony that they can look out onto. Also you will need to contact the owners if you’d like to use the BBQ in the evenings as we had no light after dark. Since there is no cooktop in the studio and the BBQ is your only cooking source, I would have expected the BBQ to be cleaner and in better condition.
- Future guests should also be aware of the close proxy of the studio to the owners house. You would need to feel comfortable opening your front door to face the owners predominantly glass front entrance and this of course means restricted privacy.
I think given the reasonable price/rate of the property, Helen provides a good offering.
Best wishes,
