Star loft is very modern with historic charm. The kitchen is fully equipped and the shower is very nice with optional back shower water jets. The washing machine came in very handy to us since we had already been traveling for several days. We had a little of a problem Finding the unit when we arrived but the host's husband found us looking on the street, he is British and was very cheerful and friendly. My only word of caution would be that if you are traveling with small children consider all the stairs between the two sleeping areas. We have a small child and it proved to be a bit of a problem at night. I think with older children it would not be a problem. Overall we were very satisfied with the loft and would highly recommend.
