Location is perfect, right in the middle of downtown, next to Thames St, a one-way road with cobblestones. Walkable to the shops on Thames St and the wharfs.
Parking is 1 minute walk across Thames St at “139 Swinburne Row” (work for Apple Maps, not work for GoogIe Maps). Need to show parking pass to enter parking, and leave on dashboard. I can offload luggage at the doorstep on Cotton St. Two sets of steps to Suite #4. The steps are a bit tall so definitely a challenge with heavy luggages.
The place is huge, especially considering its location. It looks nicer on the professional photos than in reality. Floor is not flat, perhaps due to age of the building. There were a few disrepairs which I messaged the host separately. Notable the absence of good window seal means the downtown noise sneaks in.
We were there in mid-Sept and we had to run air conditioning all day for it to stay comfortable. Trying to turn it off for the day when we were out was a mistake.
I did not get check-in and check-out instructions either via email as the host mentioned, but asking her is easy. She usually responded in an hour or two.
This stay is value for money for the weekday rate I paid, but I would expect better furnishing for the weekend rate it charges for.
