After a difficult check-in process due to our phone malfunctioning, we arrived at Sonningview without having completed our registration. Janina and Gary patiently and kindly helped us work things out with VRBO so that we could stay in their lovely apartment at Sonningview. Every detail is attended to, with little thoughtful extras like cookies, delicious bread, butter and jams and lovely lemons, tomatoes, and apples from the garden. We enjoyed having time with Janina and Gary in their round room, Frank Lloyd Wright style with a magnificent view of the bay and Hobart's hillside dwellings at Sandy Bay. Gary and Janina are warm and generous hosts and we enjoyed lively conversation and great suggestions of things to see and where to have high tea for my birthday. Our stay at Sonningview was a highlight of our trip to Tasmania, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a lovely place to stay in Hobart. Thank you, Janina and Gary, for everything!
