We stayed at Sandy's place for a week during the Art Deco festival. She's a very welcoming host who goes out of her way to make sure your stay is enjoyable. Her home is located in a quiet neighborhood very close to a good Supermarket ( 2 minutes walk to Onekawa Shops ) The place was spotless and the bed extremely comfortable. Sandy made us feel at home right from the start. Even though we didn't have a car, we found the local buses run regularly, and it was only a 5 minute walk to the nearest bus stop in either direction. We caught the occasional taxi which cost $12 -$15 to or from the City. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sandy's, and feel that she offers great value for money. We would definitely recommend it and would stay again.
