I loved it here, everyone else I met were so friendly. The location is so handy. Walking distance to the train station. Walking distance to the Bus stop to the Blue Mountains. However you can also walk to the Echo Point/Three Sisters quiet easily. You need to Bus to further walks like The Canyon Walk. It is an old house, but is kept clean. It has 2 showers & 3 toliets.

It was just a tad cluttered in my room, but I didn't mind. Was just aware when getting down from my bunk to go slow & watch where I step.
