The accommodation had a ton of windows so there was a lot of natural light. It seemed private and peaceful so it was very relaxing. The host was great at communicating from sending us a list of places to eat at night to how to use the free onsite laundry. It’s only one block from a bakery/breakfast place which was really convenient. There were many artsy cute decorations beginning with the print of a slightly goofy shore bird which I appreciated. My husband left his pill organizer and the host got it back to us that week.. This is the kind of service we look forward to on trips!
