Adelaide
The ‘fourth bedroom’ was a bed in a corridor which didn’t have 4 solid walls so the inaccurate description meant we booked and paid for a house which was completely unsuitable for our family. This house had many beds but not 4 separate bedrooms (which is the main criteria I used to book it) and we were unable to watch tv or use the 2nd bathroom after our youngest child went to bed. The front gate, dishwasher and BBQ were not functioning.

My family and I had the chance to spend four months in this amazing location in the heart of green Adelaide, Australia. A block away from an extended linear reserve (green park with running and bike paths), walkable distance to grocery stores, banks, and a great library, this well maintained house is fantastic for families, visiting scholars and those looking for a quiet place to stay. New appliances, large backyard with tent for shade, and multiple bedrooms + bathrooms. Strongly recommended.
