Excelente lugar y anfitrión
Pros:

Excelente anfitrión siempre dispuesto a ayudar. Atendió todas nuestras peticiones. Nos asesoró en temas de seguridad nada más llegar y nos ayudó cuando tuvimos un incidente relacionado con la pérdida de las maletas por parte de la compañía de vuelo. Habitación y lavabos muy grandes. Cocina amplia con todos los utensilios, té y café gratuitos, microondas, fogones para cocinar, etc. Espacio común con sofás. Muy recomendable

A nossa estadia saiu do bom para o mau na segunda-feira (29/06/2026)
Pros:

Não tinha pequeno almoço incluido.

Cons:

O acesso. A escada que se utiliza para o acesso aos quartos no andar a cima não possui corrimão para possibilitar maior segurança das pessoas wue estiverem a utilizar quer a subir como a descer. A minha esposa escorregou e partiu a perna na area do tornozelo. Não tivemos qualquer assistência do responsável ou gerente do espaço. Para que não aconteça com outros hóspedes é preciso melhorar este aspecto colocando corrimão nos locais com escada.

Pros:

Amazing location - the waterfront, supermarket and restaurants were super close to us. Blake is a fantastic host; whenever we needed anything, he responded immediately and even came personally to help us. The rooms were cleaned every day, and the whole house was spotless and very well maintained. The shower had hot water with excellent water pressure, and the beds were huge and extremely comfortable. Fully recommend this place!

Pros:

10/10 – Highly recommended!

Blake was a great host – very friendly and easygoing, quick in communication and always available for questions. The shared kitchen was excellent, and the room was spacious and very clean. Free laundry and dryer use was also available (just bring your own detergent). The fenced parking area and safe, quiet neighborhood were a big plus as well. Supermarket and restaurants within walkable distance and safe to walk for dinner.

A few basic spices in the kitchen would have been nice, but apart from that everything was perfect. Would definitely stay here again!
