Great Place

This place was a bit of a surprise. It’s very well maintained. Host was very easy to contact and super helpful. Access to the fabulous coffee shop next door was really delightful. There’s a great strip of shops over the road that we thoroughly enjoyed (good food, wine bar, groceries if needed). Train and buses nearby and we used uber a bit.Would absolutely recommend.
