What a lovely change to stay in more of a home than a hotel; it felt like we were in more of a neighbourhood than a tourist location. Nearby are some lovely little shops, and cafes (lovely place a mere 20 steps away for breakfast). The Puccini chocolate shop could be dangerous; luckily we kept walking past it to start with! Although there’s a bar nearby we were never disturbed by late night revellers. We were also able to walk around the city with ease from Erik & Ernestine’s AirBnB. Even when I had to make a quick trip to the office on the other side of the city it wasn’t too much of a problem to get there when ably assisted by Uber!

The accommodation is small, clean, and adequately furnished – very comfortable bed and bedding  We appreciated the use of wifi. Small areas for improvement would be: a kettle (we weren’t programmed to deal with luke warm water from a tap); softer towels; a TV we could work - just a simple TV would be great where you switch on and it selects a channel rather than telling us there is no aerial; when you say ‘leave the key in our mail box’, confirmation of which mailbox would be helpful.

This was our first AirBnB experience and having stayed in Erik & Ernestine’s place we would definitely go this route again.
