We felt like family. Everything was great especially the kind and humble attention we received. Thank you and your family.
I am very pleased with my stay, very friendly people, clean beds, and a nice house. Would return to this property if I was returning to the area again and again.
Check in and communications with owner is great. The proximity to the Keele campus where we were attending a training was the best part. The place is clean.
The hosts are really nice, the house is cute, the rooms are very good. We really enjoyed staying here, the only thing is that it’s an 1 hour away from the centre (though you can walk to the metro - it’s 1 km away). Would definitely recommend however staying here!
Rooms are clean and affordable, friendly hosts and is located near a train station that can take you to downtown in about 30-40 minutes.
2 very nice people with an awesome house. They even left snakes when we arrive and you got everything you need to pass you days and night in there. very clean everywhere. good WiFi speed, even cooked a nice desert. Totally worth every single Penny!
Very comfortable. It would have been better if there had been an hand shower, but it wasn't a big problem. I appreciate particularly the garage and the kitchen. The garage had been very good for my trip, because I was able to store my fishing equipment.
Great hosts that were very accommodating!
It was great and quite, I enjoyed it
