The recently renovated one bedroomed house was tastefully done, it was immaculately clean, extremely well equipped, everything appeared new and well looked after. Netflix was a bonus. Great communication from Kerri. A few minutes walk to the river and about 20min stroll to the centre. The Yellow House café just 2min walk away is highly recommended!
We have been a Stayz host for 3 years and ran a top stayz 100 studio in Australia. This place was better than ours. Beautifully finished, every detail carefully considered. I highly recommend staying in this haven.
