Beautiful and spacious home! Would definitely come again
The property owners were very clear and simple to communicate with!
There are plenty of shopping and food facilities nearby, was an overall great experience
Private, quiet, comfortable and secure, great outdoor covered area. Public transport 24/7 on your doorstep, local shops 2 min walk away. Met all our expectations and more. Would most definitely rebook.

Hi Tanya, Thank you for staying at our place and your amazing 5-star review! We are so happy that you love our clean, relaxing, and beautiful home, and that it had everything you needed during your stay. It was a pleasure hosting you. We would love to host you again soon!
The property overall was everything I needed. The best thing about it was the location. Although there was no car parking available, you didn't need a vehicle as public transport was at your doorstep. The hosts were always quick to respond to any queries I had aswell which was good. Overall it was perfect for us.
The one negative I would say, were the neighbours, who were quite loud during the 4 nights we stayed. There was a loud party, and loud arguments aswell which was unsettling.

Hi Roimata, Thank you for your nice words and we are glad that you had a great stay. Yes, that is correct! The property is close to EVERYTHING!
We are sorry to hear about the neighbors. We wish you let us knew during your stay.
We hope to have you back soon!
Stayed at this property for 6 nights and extended to ten nights. Very easy communication through bookabach ap with landlord with prompt reply when our situation changed due to covid lockdowns.
The accommodation was very spacious for one bedroom, the trundle
Bed was fantastic for our little girls and the fact that there was washing machine with clothes horse was great!
It is totally private (which I didn’t expect) with its own cute little well maintained yard that felt extremely safe and well away from the Main Street.
Their were only two items that I could critique- that is, I could not find the kitchen sink plug and a few extra blankets need to be kept on site for colder nights.
All in all, for the price, it is extremely good value and I would definitely stay again :)

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
Wonderful quiet place
Excellent quiet place equipped with all that is needed. Except one or two things: the coach in the living room needs urgent replacement; it really falls apart, and a vacuum cleaner might come in handy.

We are glad to hear that you have liked the place.
Apologies for the issue faced! We will check on this to have that replaced.
I booked this through Bookabach with whom I agreed to their T&Cs. However after my payment had been taken (and given directly to The Stay Hub (host company), not Bookabach who I thought I was paying), I then had to agree to the T&Cs of The Stay Hub before I could continue with the booking. They asked for extremely intrusive verification details (which could easily be used as a scam) and I will not be using them again. More transparency is needed within Bookabach so customers are fully informed BEFORE they make payment as I would never had agreed to this! Accommodation was OK but the booking process was very disappointing, totally unnecessary and unethical.

Hi Ingrid! We apologize for any inconvenience you experienced during the booking process. These are for the security of both the hosts and the guests. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a better experience in the future.
The property is well looked after. It was raining a lot so we couldn't use the yard, but not much can be done about that. The bathroom mirror on the door is stuck on, which is a bit dangerous, so if that can be secured properly, it would be great. Shriya

property great, back section with small garden, minimal road noise despite busy road, initial communication slow, but good once arrived, no-refund policy for Covid cancellation would put me off booking again though
