Was happy to find this property in a quiet area 2.3kms from where I was studying. The walk to Symonds St was a bit taxing with the steep hills, particularly in the heat of summer with back-pack, so I started Ubering into study in the mornings, but walked back at the end of the day which was mostly downhill and very pleasant. I mostly ate on the run so didn't make use of the kitchen facilities, however I appreciated having a room with private bathroom. Can certainly recommend, especially to solo travellers.
