Russell and Penelope's place was great for us. My family and I (toddler and infant) stayed for a week while attending a conference. Taking the ferry across the river was easy and the toddler loved it. The hosts let me use a bike, which made my solo commute even faster. The place was nice and quiet with a decent kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms, and good laundry facilities. The hosts were amazingly responsive to every question and that was greatly appreciated. A downside is that there seems to be very few decent grocery store options within walking distance and we had to go across the river to stock the kitchen.
