The location of this place was great. It's within walking distance of the Manly ferry (approx 10 mins) and the beach. The treak up the hill was decent, but doable! The place was very clean and quiet. The only downside was that it was super hot in the loft where the bed was. But we just kept the big windows open (which have screens) and had the fan on - the aircon unit was too noisy for us to sleep with it on. It's a great place to stay though!
