The property was very clean and hosts were responsive. The extra touches such as outlet adapters, laundry detergent and bottle of wine were very appreciated! The confirmation info mentioned that garbage is collected weekly, but I didn’t realize it was the responsibility of the guest to put it out until the last minute, which was a bit stressful, but not too much of an issue. The location was great; close enough to walk for groceries and restaurants but in a quiet neighbourhood. ##### Kelsey Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dietmar H.
