    A very nice place! Located about 30 minutes from the city center, in a quiet district. The room is clean, has all the essentials, and the street view is charming. Great soundproofing and a very comfortable bed. Neil is a helpful and kind host :)...

    The larger room was lovely, but the smaller one was a little tight for a giant like myself. Lovely people. Recommended

    Lovely area, easy to get into the main area of the city on bus 24 or a couple or streets over on bus 3. Great shop on the corner with basic groceries, reasonably priced sandwiches, yogurt, baked goods, fruit etc. The Old Bell Pub up the road...

    My room was a nice size. I especially liked having the bathroom/shower within the room area. The room was very clean, and was kept warm and cosy. I liked having a guest house key, so that it was possible to come and go at will. It was handy...

    Pretty close to public transportation and restaurants. The mattress was comfortable. Lots of cabinets to put your clothes in.

    Neil is easy going. The grocery shop right across the street is nice. Quite a few bus stops close by. Really nice to have some place cozy and quiet away from all the hustle and bustle of the festival.
