Staying at Bettina's worked out great. It was the perfect place for my friend and I to crash in the Bywater for a couple of nights while we explored the city.

It's a very secure and cute shotgun-style house typical of the area. Probably ideal for a couple, but would work for 2 couples just fine. The gas fireplace, bikes to borrow (!!), bottled waters, fresh/clean smelling bedding, and fluffy towels all made for a comfortable stay.

It's a very basic accommodation, maybe not ideal for too much time spent just hanging out or entertaining (if that's something you're looking to do), but I'd definitely recommend her place — specifically if you're looking for a place to sleep and shower comfortably.

Though there wasn't a need for us to interact much during our stay, Bettina was very responsive and kind when we did. Also, based on what I read in the guest book in the house, she and her family are very well liked by past guests.
