We found this property to be inadequate. Unprofessional and poor quality renovations, eg plumbing. Several OH&S issues eg gaps in the floor.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Poor Communication from Expedia, no mobile contact number to contact anyone to find out where to access the key for the property and details not on the paperwork emailed to me. Property was really old and smelt of dust and mildew, shower was full of dirt and mildew around it. Exit to back door as shown in evacuation map had been secured closed with 4 x screws, floor at the back of the property was buckling under the weight of a person. The first photo shown on the website was not even a picture of the property, that has got to be false advertising, etc etc.

Well Located & cosy
We enjoyed our stay. Beds were comfortable. Amenities such as appliances, Crockery were of good quality & clean. WIFI was easy to connect to. Furniture was comfortable & good standard. Neighborhood is very cool, Cafe directly across the road is terrific, coffee was really good. Easy connections to public transport. Very quick access to Newcastle centre via road or bus. Short walk to Maryville Tavern which has terrific food & good selction of wine & beers. Enjoyed our stay.
