We've stayed in this neighborhood several times, and it's a wonderfully walkable area with shops, stores and eateries (and even the Sony Studio) all within 15-20 minutes on foot. This cottage worked great to stay in and explore the area. Check-in and communication were quick and easy, and it was clean and well-furnished, with lots of nice touches. While it's small, it has everything you need in the bedrooms and kitchen and worked well for our party of 4. I particularly enjoyed sitting on the front porch reading on a sunny afternoon.
