Private bedroom and a nice garden, 5 minutes to University of Canberra (UC) and 10 minutes to Australian National University (ANU). Public transport only 300 m away and we can offer a nice bicycle for the guest to use.
We are a family of four. We all speak both English and Chinese.
The father is 47 years of age, working as a college teacher and as a fitness trainer.
The mother is 41 years of age, studying full time and working part time.
We all love sports and outdoor activities. We could take the guest with us outdoors and for fitness training.
We have wireless broadband internet that will also be accessible to the guest
for free.
The house has a separate area with separate entrance just for the two students.
On the property there is a very friendly dog, Labrador, roaming freely.
We could support students learning.

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.
When do I pay?
Once a host confirms they're available, you can go ahead and pay the 15% booking fee (maximum of 250 $£€ for longer term bookings) and a 25% deposit using a choice of payments: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Laser, JCB & PayPal. The deposit is collected in advance on behalf of the host to protect against no show or late cancellations (within 7 days of arrival). You then pay your host the balance due on arrival. The 25% deposit payment is made to the host 2 business days after your scheduled arrival date. This deposit payment will only be refunded if you cancel the booking at least 7 full days prior to arrival.
When can I share my contact details?
Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
