    The Cottage is a beautiful, quiet abode, fully furnished, spacious and very comfortable. The quiet factor is always what I'm looking for. I enjoyed the coffee machine, the air conditioning (it was very cold this weekend) and the shower as well! The chirping of the birds outside, the convenient location and the lovely hosts round it up nicely.

    Great location close to all the tourist attractions. Very quaint inn-style hotel, only 2 floors. Very historic, and lots of interesting old photos on the walls. Pretty well-kept gardens and a lovely courtyard to sit in and relax with a glass of wine after a big day of sightseeing. Staff are all very friendly & helpful, especially those on the reception desk. Rooms are quiet and not a bad size, beds are comfortable.

    The apartment was a generous size with king size beds in both rooms. Showers were nice and hot with good pressure. The kitchen was fully equipped with large size TVs in the sitting area and main bedroom. The apartment was quiet and located in the heart of Braddon with a wide selection of eateries and shops within walking distance. We had a late flight out of Canberra and Dang, the host was most obliging by letting us check out in the afternoon. Great location and apartment and I would highly recommend it to Canberra visitors.

    Great location, very quiet and comfortable. Good security and facilities. The host left food/snacks which was a lovely thought after a long drive. Very much appreciated.

    Apartment size and amenities, great price for what you get in apartment, very comfortable and great location, close to city centre. Quiet as well. Also super comfy beds!!! Probably the most comfortable bed we have slept on during a trip away from home.
