    Great return to Brisbane, I have been very lucky to find the perfect accommodation in Nundah with Kris n Ben! The house's location is perfect, a quick stroll to the train station, shops n veggie market. My bedroom was super comfy and tidy, so was my own bathroom and in general the rest of the house. Really good housesharing, quiet and easygoing, exactly what I was looking for, Kris and Ben've been very nice making me feel at home from the very first day. Totally recommended, 5/5.

    I had a wonderful stay with Kris and Ben, they’ve always been super nice and caring, always welcoming and ready to help with anything I mat have needed. They always treated me like one of their own from the day I arrived!
    I felt very comfortable in the house, which was spotless and tidy all the time, the room were I stayed was very spacious and bright so I couldn’t be happier with my choice!
    I totally recommend these guys!

    Bon voyage, Jérémy. Thanks for choosing our place for your last days in Australia. Happy to hear you and Ben got along while I was out of town.

How do I book?

Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.

When can I share my contact details?
