LAUNDRY AREA:
A washer and dryer are available to use, as well as an iron and ironing board.

The property can be accessed using an electronic code for the door. Although I am just a message away if you need help checking in.

I am available mostly through Airbnb messaging but I give privacy to my guests. If there is an urgent issue, you can always call me.

I have been living in Canberra for quite some time now and can help you navigate your way around the local area if you need. I can also provide you with any tips on the best places to go for food or just to have fun!

From this peaceful, friendly neighborhood it is just steps to all the shops and restaurants of the vibrant Dickson centre. A wide choice of sought-after primary, secondary schools and colleges are all within walking distance. A network of bike paths, as well as light rail, ensure a smooth trip into the City centre.

Close to shops and tram, and the very popular Dickson Wetlands, right in the heart of the Inner North! It also boasts a serious range of features including multiple indoor and outdoor living areas

Outdoor umbrella - please close when not in use. :)

We also have a gardener who checks the garden once a month.

Any violation of our no-party rule will result in a $2000 non-negotiable penalty, in addition to any damages.
1. Let us know if you need to check in early or leave later than the standard check in/out times. We'd need to collect $20 for the first 30 minutes and additional $40 for the next 30-minute increments when there is a breach in the observance of standard check in and out times.

2. I have a STRICT "No Pets Policy" and "No Smoking Policy". These are applicable inside and outside of the property. Any breach will result to a fine of $400 plus any additional fees for specialised cleaning.

3. The cleaning fee covers the regular cleaning and linens in the property. As this is not a hotel, please try to leave the place as tidy as possible. If the property is extra messy when you leave, an extra cleaning fee will be requested (minimum of $50).

4. Please be sure you understand our cancellation policies. You can find our current policy on our Airbnb listing.

5. Only those persons who made the reservation may stay in our property. If you're a business or government agency booking for other people, please contact us in advance to ensure access details are made clear.

6. No parties or gatherings of more than the maximum number of people that can book the property. Any non-guests must leave by 10:00 pm. And there should strictly be no loud noise after 10:00 pm. There is a $2000 penalty if this house rule is breached.

7. There are some items in the kitchen (tea, coffee, sugar, milk) which you are welcome to use. Also, the pantry has a few basics (i.e. muesli). We don't stock the refrigerator or provide any meals.

8. I list my property as not suitable for kids or infants as it is not child-proofed and we don't have baby amenities (i.e. high chair, cot). However, if the kids will be under adult supervision at all times, booking with children is no problem.

9.⁠ ⁠The property will be holding a security deposit for all stays. If no damages are identified, the full amount will be released within 3 days of check-out. In case of damages, necessary fees will be deducted, and affected parties will be promptly notified.

Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected. Conveniences include a desk and a microwave.
Enjoy recreation amenities such as a water park or take in the view from a garden.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

A trying time
We were in Canberra from interstate to visit a dying relative (my Mother) and my father who has advanced dementia. I wanted a rental that was straightforward and fit for the purpose of visiting a dying relative from interstate. I was bombarded with requests for detail on existing damage to the post box and then requests to undertake maintenance action for an intermittent smoke alarm. The contact with the host through the messaging service was clumsy and did not allow for quick contact when it was needed most. The check in process seemed to assume that i had bad intent. Whilst the property itself was fine, the service was not fit for the purpose for which we rented it - ie to facilitate family access to a dying relative. Altogether it was a trying time and I would not choose anything that was listed by CANBNB if there were an alternative. Regards, Hugo Wansey.

Old, tired and over priced
We had an ok time at this property. The house was functional but basic and tired. The fixtures and fittings were low quality (wood effect flooring, tiny bathroom, uncomfortable sofas). The heating was loud and seemed to bang periodically as it switched on and off, day and night. The bathroom door kept locking itself and instead of fixing it, the owners left instructions on how to remove the handle fitting to disconnect the lock. Lastly the queen bed either had a broken frame or a sloping mattress which resulted in an uncomfortable bed. All of these points collectively made for a less than optimal stay. The most annoying thing about our stay was that it was significantly over priced (close to $900 a night including ‘host fees’). This left us feeling underwhelmed by the property. We won’t be staying here again.
