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!
