I had a great two-week stay at Helen's place. While at a walking distance from Stokes Croft and the centre (be aware that the buses are not always reliable!), the house is situated in a very quiet, friendly and green neighbourhood. The house is comfortable, well-equipped, and has a homely feeling; and the room is spacious and very comfortable. Helen is a most wonderful hosts: friendly, accommodating, helpful, very welcoming... And Chomsky the cat is a very cute and friendly little co-host! Warmly recommended.
