Great Spot
A hick up with the wrong door code was promptly sorted out. We arrived to a lovely warm house. Heaters on prior to our arrival! Was just perfect -being walking distance to the supermarket, town and the waterfront. Wifi was seamless. Beds so comfortable. Used ubers to go out in the evening. Had a great stay. Thank you.

Cozy!
Well thought out and well cared for property. Parking can be a hassle, but that’s life in the city. So clean and organized, nice quality cookware too. Would absolutely stay there again, perfect!
