The location was very close to public transport and also accessible to grocery store and restaurants. One additional Bathroom would be advantage when having many guests.

Sep 3, 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice little place Overall the stay was very positive, the only issue we had and I will preface this "we booked very late". When our employees arrived the house had not been cleaned, but the manager sent over cleaners right away and they got the place cleaned and ready for their stay. I think it was just a scheduling thing with how late we had booked the day prior to check-in. ##### Ashley B. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ashley S.
