"Best-kept Blue Mountain secret"

9.0

The vibe of this space is wonderful. Ross was so lovely and helpful the night I got in. The kitchen has everything you need, and there are plenty of communal spaces to hang out with like minded souls, play games, instruments, and chat around the fire. The bedroom I was in was comfortable, and even had a heated mattress pad!! I really enjoyed my stay here. A great value for this little gem in the Blue Mountains! I’ll be back :)

Nothing, I really enjoyed my time here.

Location

There is no window or fresh air in the shared room I felt bites in the bed. The kitchen was grotty with flies buzzing around. (No flyscreen on window) The 2 bathrooms inside were always in use, so I had to use the outside toilet.
