Alfie and his girlfriend are friendly, kind and attentive hosts. They ran for the first aid kit when I came home with a sprained ankle! I slept really well being at the back of the house on a very quiet street, and Alfie and his girlfriend being quiet and respectful and being lucky enough to be the first on a brand new memory foam mattress! It takes about 30 minutes to walk to Alfie's house from the river. Or there's a bus then a 10 minute walk.
