Location is pretty prime for train and highway access, lots of activity in the immediate neighborhood but never felt over-whelmed by it. Theres a bar next door but it really never gave us any problems noise-wise. Their dog, Skye, is a total cutie but barks a lot when you come home without Ben or Giorgia there. Our only complaint is about the barking. If you can manage to give him a pat however, he's a mush.
Otherwise, Ben and Giorgia were more than accommodating with conversation and suggestions. And even with one bathroom there was never any issue. Backyard was a cute area to research areas to hit, and there are pretty great cafes and places to grab a bite around the place.
Combo of the hosts, the place, and the location, its a great deal and I would recommend to a friend!
