First of all, the hosts are amazing - very friendly and approachable, always quickly replied to any queries I've had.
Secondly, the area is somewhat of a hidden gem - quiet, but a 10-minute walk away from the lively Stokes Croft and Gloucester Road. Beautiful St Andrews park right around the corner from the place. One of the bus stops is right across the road.
My room was spacious and had a very comfortable bed. The house itself has a large kitchen, dining and living room areas.
I was lucky enough to have shared the house with some great people, so after a month-long stay this place really started to feel like home!
