The owner was very responsive and friendly. Breakfast was made fresh and to order. Although the property is older, it was clean and with all the amenities you need. Beds were comfortable The grounds need tidying up desperately to restore what would have been a beautiful garden area.

Kevin was the best host. He personally cooked us breakfast and you could see that he genuinely loved what he was doing. I really enjoyed my stay with him. Very thoughtful man! Would definitely stay here again if i came back.

The owner, Kevin, was very pleasant and accommodating. Each morning he greeted us with a large hot breakfast plus coffee or tea. There was a communal, large full sized kitchen with all amenities there for our use. You must be able to walk up stairs in order to reach our room. The bathroom was not modern but certainly adequate with hairdryer, shampoo and conditioner. We’d certainly stay here again- much better than a plain hotel room which is twice the cost!

Avoid - Not as described!
Bed linen and towels were fresh and clean but overall state of cleanliness and fabric of building not good. Dust and cobwebs everywhere. Shower facilities very cramped and nowhere to put soap bags etc. Breakfast was mediocre. This establishment has not been a cafe for some considerable time. WiFi reception very poor. Garden unkempt and full of weeds. Our stay was in the Heritage Art Cottage, part of which was being used as a storage area. On the plus side there was plenty of hot water.

The property was quaint, cozy, and walking distance to Salamanca and the CBD which was perfect. Rooms were cozy, and the shared bathroom was spacious, with amenities to use if needed such as shampoo and conditioner. Highlight of our stay was Kevin, who was incredibly cheerful and helpful, and made us feel so welcomed. I’ll recommend staying here for the experience alone!

Lowena was okay for one night near the CBD. Basically everything needs upgrading, ‘ensuite’ smelt mouldy, lots of furniture crammed into a small room, aesthetic was weird. Comfy bed so grateful for that.

Lovely old house with some modern features set in lovely garden. On a busy street hence busy traffic during the day and night. Hospitable host and very welcoming.

Very enthusiastic owner, who serves a great breakfast. My room was fairly large, but I could not get beyond some of the poor quality renovations that were done, especially related to the electrical work. Also, the bathroom is very poorly designed with almost 0 horizontal spaces.

Tasty breakfast!
Kevin was a great host. Breakfast was really tasty. Not luxury but the room had everything we needed, small kitchen, TV etc. Bit of a walk from town but its fine. Skybus drop off/pick up is about 10 mins walk and town about 15 mins.

Looked promising. Property is in need of a makeover. Had the Kings room with ensuite which needed some workin shower and a big clean. Was in an excellent position to Hobart central and Kevin was a fine host. Excellent breakfast cooked freshly for you. If property was cleaned up would be a great place to stay.
