Mine was a last-minute booking made on the day due to an unexpected need to stay in Bristol for work. Veronica's house was about as close as it is possible to get to the University of Bristol, which was a big plus, whilst also being easily walkable to a large number of restaurants on Park Street and Queen's Road. Veronica responded very quickly to my request to stay, and her house was easy to find given its location as the last house in the row near the top of the steps.
The basement was part of the home, but also well separated, so it felt homely without the social pressure of actually being in a stranger's house for the evening. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom private and pleasant. One particular feature I liked was a low base temperature: those of us who grew up in houses without central heating often find hotels give us a sleepless 12-hour roasting, but Veronica's was pleasantly cool. There were heaters available, however, so don't be put off by me if you like it warmer.
