    Such a delightful Homestay experience. Myself and my partner came to QLD from WA and would couldn’t have asked for better hosts than Val and Ted. This was an unforgettable experience for us both and we will forever be grateful for all the help and love we received during our stay. Val and Ted ensured we felt at home and weren’t just our hosts but friends during our stay who we could enjoy a meal with, sit and have a chat or most importantly watch the sport with on the weekends ( and we watched a lot of everything from AFL to Rugby and the Cricket). We will miss seeing their bright and bubbly faces each day and hope to bump into them again in the future.

    Valerie and Ted are a lovely couple and the best of hosts you could ask for. They are very accommodating, and always offer you breakfast. tea and coffee in the mornings. They make sure everything is okay with your room and always check on your well being. I have decided to stay on with them as I have really enjoyed my time with them. Highly recommended to stay here !!

    Cannot give stars to two difficult hosts.

    We are paying for the room and they have offered us a rule that we are not allowed to stay in the room all the time. This was not presented to us prior to our stay. So we could not rest on our day off and tried to force ourselves to go out.

    And finally they were unreasonably demanding about the PAYMENT. They threatened to make us pay on a different date than what was stated in the email before we arrived.
    I cannot give stars to those who are hurting our humanity and bad-mouthing us with too many rules, to the point of demanding unfair payments.

    These boys left our home after refusing to pay the the amount agreed - 4 weeks payment. I believe the language difference was a huge factor. They thought we were being dishonest for some reason and did not seem to understand.
    We made the mistake of not collecting the full payment on arrival and agreeing to stager the payments for their convenience.
    Our home is of high standard and we are very accomodating. These two boys were extremely difficult and were happy to sleep all day. They worked about 3 days in the time they were here. I did their washing, cooked meals etc. It became difficult to clean their room because they were reluctant to leave the room.
    It is very disappointing to have had such difficult young young men in our home.
    There is always a first time. I guess we have always had such lovely guests before and since this unfortunate experience.
    So this is a lesson to us and other hosts make sure you receive your full payment on arrival. Also we have a deposit paid on booking by Homestay for security of which we are is very appreciative.
