Nice spacious house very close to the CBD and the wharf. Our group included a a couple and a friend, and we appreciated having both upstairs and downstairs units available to us. The decor is rather 'vintage', but everything was in good shape and worked well. The back yard is quite pleasant with some nice shade trees. We enjoyed a meal outside cooked on the grill.
Being outside was sometimes more pleasant on a warm day, as the place does tend to heat up. There are some high windows without curtains, making it difficult to keep warm sun from shining in. When the windows were open air circulated fairly well and it stayed reasonably comfortable.
Location is excellent - within a couple of hundred meters of the center of town and the Esplanade, but still on a quiet residential street (other than a couple of construction projects nearby, anyway).
Rob dropped by once to see how things were going and provide some local recommendations, but otherwise we were left to our own devices.
Internet was a little flaky and slow, but mostly did the job. Kitchen was reasonably equipped.
