Charlie had quite a lot guests the day I arrived so it felt like a proper B&B but still she was always there for a little chat. The breakfast she provided was very good and the room was big and tidy. The rest of the house is very nicely furnished with even a little garden, not as clean as a hotel but I think you can't expect that of a host when there are so many people living. I can't say anything about the area, like how close by shops and public transport are, because I only stayed for 2 nights and always took the car. But still it was a nice and quiet neighborhood with a good view over the city and I would stay there again.
