Samira's home is in a quiet neighborhood. It has free parking in the area and we didn't have a problem finding a space to leave the car for two days. It was a good 40 minute walk into the city (even longer for us as google maps seemed to take us a long way). We took bikes from the Velo station right outside on the second day and this was a perfect way to get around and very easy to use. If you are looking for a base to use while you explore the fantastic city I would recommend a stay here.
