Liked: Cleanliness
Our stay was perfect. We were a family group of 68-80 year old brother and sisters, with one family member living less than 0.5 miles from the location, a very easy walk. This is a pristine large house with big rooms and high ceilings that fit us perfectly for visits around the table and living room. The house had everything you may need. Beds were comfortable, the shower hot & strong and the place was spotless. The owner was a delight to communicate with and always answered my questions promptly. We are hoping to stay once more next year.

Great stay!

We were here in July and were very pleased with it. The metro was a quick 5 minute walk, the house was spacious, and Bob’s communication and helpfulness was 10/10. Parking close to the house was a little hit and miss, but this placed checked off all the other boxes for us. Great place!
