John communicated well and the place was well located. It's very sparse in terms of decor and amenities. John was very clear that it is up two flights of stairs but note that the stairs are old and narrow so if you have older guests or anyone with mobility issues you need to be aware of that. If it weren't so expensive I would have rated it higher, I just felt like the value wasn't there for the price we paid. That said, it worked out well as a central location for a family wedding and it is in a great spot for access to restaurants, parks, transport, and morning bagels.
