Helen’s place is really well-located to enjoy Albany. It is a short walk into town, and there is a lovely cafe just down the road on Vancouver Street. The space itself was comfortable, with a large TV which could be viewed from the sofa or bed. The only thing we missed was a table to sit at when eating. However, there were tables and chairs in a lovely garden setting. We appreciated the extras such as milk in the fridge, a bowl of fruit, and chocolate biscuits.
