    Because it is called a bed and breakfast, we thought breakfast was included,I think that the name is rather misleading. Would have liked a bigger bed,with bedside tables.Property was clean,and very well appointed in the kitchen area.Nice shower and bathroom

    Having to leave at 9:30am. No air-conditioning in rooms. General maintenance on pool not done.

    The rooms were nice, clean and comfortable. The quick check-in was great. Close and handy to everything.

    NO blanket and No doona in room and woke up cold 3am on second morning. NOT impressed at all. Only one spare pillow. No bedside reading lamps and no luggage bench. Checkout time earlier than most establishments and threatened penalty if you were past that time. B n B is a misnomer. If you want breakfast first morning you need to order it before you check in. I would have thought at a B n B that breakfast would be part of the deal. Did not encounter any staff let alone management in our two day stay so no human touch to the place and it all felt a little impersonal.In these respects it fell well short of a 4 - 4.5 star rating.

    Location and peaceful. Loved the verandah and the whole setup once we knew how it operated.

    The cost of the wifi and breakfast. The fans in the bathrooms aren't very strong and cut out during use.

    The location is excellent. It is a beautiful house that suits couples, families, or a few families.

    It needs maintenance, the polished floors were dirty,it looked like dirty water had been swished around on the mop. The pool was cloudy and dead animals in the pool cleaner basket. The rubbish bin in the kitchen had not been emptied from the previous tenant.

    Breakfast N/a Location was great

    It’s a hidden gem. Right in Atherton but hidden in the bush at the same time.

    When we arrived, the bins in the apartment hadn't been emptied and the oven was dirty. Provision of an oven tray would be the answer to food crumbs being left in the oven. The ad said wifi available, however it was $20 for 2 days which seemed very extreme. When advertising accommodation as a BnB, it means bed and breakfast. It is the first BnB that I have stayed at that breakfast is then charged on top of the rate. Also, there was no gas in the bbq.

    The apartment had been tastefully built and overall it was very clean.

    Lovely quiet location…spacious

    • Deluxe Double or Twin Room with Pool View

    It was a very chilly weekend and unfortunately the aircon/heating did not work in the main lounge… making it impossible to sit there in the evening. We moved back to our room but the “tiny” TV is impossible to watch from the bed… Unable to watch TV …there were no bedside lamps to read by…. Although every possible thoughtful facility was available in the shared kitchen and dining area… a couple of glasses and tea and coffee facilities in the rooms would have been much appreciated… I’m sure this would not have been so noticeable if the weather had been warmer but to have get up (with no bedside lamp) in the chilly night and then get dressed to get a glass of water from a shared area was a little inconvenient. Small things but they can make all the difference to comfort.

    It was a peaceful location in a lovely setting. The pole home is attractive with beautiful timber …it would benefit from some larger local art on those big walls. It would be a wonderful group and family venue. Beautiful wide veranda would be a stunning place to relax with a chilled glass of wine on a fine day. Very convenient to visit the many stunning national parks, the bat hospital, galleries and markets in the area

    Not enough towels for everyone to go in the pool and then have a dry towel for showering. There were designated cupboards for each rooms food with a lock, but no keys. No longer have mountain views, the lovely garden has grown too high to see any more. Doesn’t have block out curtains despite saying so on the website, had Venetian blinds instead. Not much light around at night to bother you but too much sunlight for a sleep in.

    Plenty of space and good amount of kitchenware and utensils. The place was nice and quiet and the beds were comfortable. The pool was enjoyed by all. Very nice house overall.
