Wonderful short stay in Battery Point

The apartment was bright, really well-equipped and ideally located. We enjoyed a couple of mights after a multi-day hike and everything we could have needed was provided. Carol communicated really clearly about what the apartment offered and the check-in process was seamless.

What a great location with easy access to walk to many attractions in Hobart. The apartment was comfortable with good amenities and easy to find. The parking was in the street behind the apartments but still convenient. Overall an enjoyable location in Hobart.

Visited Hobart for the Wooden Boat Festival and other events . This was an excellent location just removed from the crowds attending but close enough to stroll down to the events and surrounding attractions..Harbour views allowed relaxed viewing of on water activities.The accommodation lacked nothing.

Walking distance to everything

Can be a bit noisy when people arrived as the ramp to front door is in front of your verandah and the entrance to building is behind the wall where you sit in the unit. Stopped watching the movie as a busload arrived then the noise in floor above as they settled in with their cases. Bedroom quiet but not fully darkened due to light outside on building. Walking distance to Salamanca Markets. Best Fried Rice ever around the corner! Comfy bed, clean unit,great fresh coffee although we used our own. Take your own jam,honey,butter etc for toast next morning. A 2 night stay was perfect.
