You really can’t beat the location. I was able to walk to everything I wanted to see and do in a 3 day stay. Dina is almost always available for questions and local tips which are extremely helpful. She allowed me to check in early after an overnight flight with no sleep and this was a life saver as I was delirious. My bed linens looked a bit dirty upon my arrival but I was honestly too tired to care. The space is very minimalistic. You must provide your own handsoap and toiletries. The one towel per guest rule is strictly enforced. My towel disappeared from the bathroom on day 2/3 of my stay and I had no towel to dry my hands or face on after washing with my own soap for the remainder of my trip. I am also a minimalist, so I made it work. I felt safe in this house, although there are no locks on the bedroom doors so it took some time for me to shake my uneasiness about this.
The only real complaint I have is that Pommie barks a LOT. I am not a light sleeper and slept with earplugs every night since I had the front room near the street and Pommie’s barking woke me up each night of my stay between the hours of 1am and 3am. The dog is quite friendly once you pet him, but he barks at everyone and seems kind of anxious and unsure of the guests. I’ve never met a dog that doesn’t like me, so this was a first. Typically, my energy puts dogs at ease, but Pommie is a special case.
