A great location but property is cluttered and looking tired
The house is in a GREAT location and generally is OK but is now looking a little tired. On our arrival, the house is not quite as good as the photos depict. Unfortunately the garden, entrance hall and living areas are cluttered and looking a little shabby. The beds were fine but the bedding (sheets/linen, pillows, etc) were not of very good standard. The biggest problem was the location of the toilet. There is only one toilet and it is located right next to the lounge/TV room. If you are sitting reading, watching TV, etc then you have the awkward situation of having to hear all the bodily functions coming from someone using the toilet. We were travelling with family (5 adults), so it wasn't tooo embarrassing but I would not like this situation if travelling with friends or acquaintances. Overall the stay was great, the host was responsive but the photo's on the website were taken a LONG time ago and appear to have been 'staged'. Even some of the furniture is now different to what we found.

Great place to stay
We enjoyed our stay here, Chris went out of his way to make sure our time would be comfortable and enjoyable. Rose park is a great location, in a beautiful leafy part of Adelaide. The yard has plenty of space for our dog with a lovely green lawn. For those with dogs who enjoy a run off lead, we did find a nice size dog park nearby where Ruby could run and socialise with the other local dogs.

Great central location in one of Adelaides nicest suburb.
Great location with easy walking distance to local shops. Communication from the owner was clear and responsive. All of the extras made the stay feel like a home. Pet friendly and clean (no previous pet hair). Our cat loved the backyard.

Perfect location!
Loved the location, so close to town, Burnside Village and IGA around the corner plus a coffee shop and bakery too! Our dog loved roaming around Victoria Park. The bedrooms were all generously sized and the beds comfortable. Lots of room for the dog to explore in the backyard.
