“Grateful guest”
+Manager of this property, Rod, is very kind and accommodating. The venue is comfortable, has everything I needed. Enjoyed having fully set up kitchen in which I could cook. Lovely wrap-around verandah. I enjoyed the personal touches, eg family photographs. Although this is his home, Rod was discreet and unobtrusive which I appreciate.
−Unfortunately the serenity of the location was disturbed by neighbouring construction works and tradies playing loud radio which , of course, is out of Rod's control. The freezer in the kitchen did not work at all which I only realised the following morning when my items were barely cold. The location is lovely but challenging without a car as it is towards the bottom of a very steep hill. There is nowhere to buy groceries in Kalorama. Instructions for the TV may have been helpful for a luddite like me. I didn't watch it as I couldn't figure it out.

“The stay was nice and just a great spot to get away to, would love to come back if I'm in the area.”
+I liked the relaxed nature of the host and his friendliness. On top of this, the location was terrific and the rooms felt private and were comfortable. One more thing was the hot tub, which was very relaxing.
−Maybe a little cleaner, but to be honest I didn't have any issues.

+The location was perfect for me. I wanted to do lots of mountain hiking and it was perfectly situated for that. Great breakfast provisions, comfy bed and enjoyed the spa.
−Apart from high use items, nearly everything was a bit dusty.

“A great value guesthouse which will delight those who would experience a past era in comfort.”
+This guesthouse is an experience where little pieces of interest can be discovered in most parts of every room. Rod,the host, is very genial and helpful. The position, views and the collection of antique and quirky objects abounding in your own room and the optional communal lounge and kitchen all contribute to a great experience at an amazingly reasonable price for the Mt Dandenong Tourist road area.
−The rooms are reasonable size but not spacious, but I am comparing to stays costing double the cost.

“A sweet escape!”
+The guest house itself is absolutely beautiful and the mountain location is perfect. Large bathroom and 2 seating areas, great for families. A good kitchen to cook meals and breakfast items in room.
−Found the bedside tables and other furniture throughout the house covered in dust and the shower is too small and bathroom too cold. Shower needs to be extended with better water flow and heating will be great for winter getaway as it's very cold up the mountain.
