The location is great, short walk to river, beach and shops. But house could do with a bit of work! It was described by others as 'basic' which is probably over-selling it somewhat. The only curtains in the house are lace, so you wake with the sunrise and at night are on display to the street. There is very low water pressure in the shower, the bath is even worse (to fill the bath you need to run both the bath and shower, otherwise it would take forever). The cold tap in the kitchen has a water hammer so mighty not even Thor himself would be worthy. The cookware is very old but sadly not in a cool retro way - all the retro with none of the chic. Although there are, strangely, not one but three modern rice cookers. So if you like waking with the dawn and eating lots of rice and you're not overly committed to privacy or showering, this is the place for you!
