I live in an inner west suburb of Brisbane, close to all bus and train routes, and shops. The University of Queensland is close by, other university's are easily reached on public transport. You will have a room to yourself and use of the second bathroom/toilet and laundry. You are free to use the kitchen and/or share meals with me, I cook varied healthy meals. My family and grand children visit often.
I have high speed, unlimited download, broadband internet and Netflix TV. There is another smart TV downstairs for your use and for playing games.
The living rooms are up 15 stairs, garage and second TV downstairs
Please note. Homestay do not allow us to exchange addresses or contact info until after you have paid. So I can't arrange for you to inspect the room before you paid.
I'm sorry, but I can't offer overnight off-street parking.

I would require you to be at least double vaccinated, preferably with the booster shot.
No smoking/naked flames inside the house.
You are free to use the kitchen, but leave it cleaner that you found it !!
Light breakfast provided, other meals by arrangement.
Please, no open-element (bar) heaters due to fire risk. I'll run the air conditioner on heat when needed. The ducted air conditioner is run when required.

He kindly took me to the next place where I would stay, which makes me rate 5 stars. Unfortunately, on the day I left, he came inside my room at 6 am and took all the bed equipment.
I found it annoying and terrible. Even if he had another guest to welcome on the next day, I don’t think it’s a right thing to do to a guest. Which made me rate 4.Host reply
That is what happens when you don’t move out when you are supposed to. I need that day to launder all the bedding and get it dry and made up again. The extra day he stayed, not paid for, took up my housekeeping time.
Kotaro was up anyway!
