I spent three weeks in Nicky's home while visiting family nearby. I stayed in one of the two small bedrooms that Nicky offers to guests. The place was perfect for me!
My room and bed were very comfortable as was the rest of her home. There was a ceiling fan in my room which helped cool the room in the evenings after some very hot and humid days. Her kitchen is well equipped and spotless, and she expects guests to keep it that way. So nice! The place looked exactly like it does in the photos she posted. I watched her clean after another guest checked out and I can absolutely say that Nicky's home is one of the cleanest places I've ever stayed.
Nicky was very happy to chat, offer suggestions on local activities, and was very warm and welcoming. She is out a lot for work and play so many times I had the place to myself. It was very relaxing and quiet.
The area of Scarborough Beach is lovely and I was able to walk to the beach and the large new outdoor pool complex. There is a small market and a couple of bakeries/cafes a block away, a larger grocery store down near the beach. The location was great for me, allowing me to have time with family and also time alone to enjoy the ocean.
I highly recommend Nicky's and would stay with her again in a heartbeat.
