The neighbourhood is residential, it has only houses, and lots of trees. It is also very quiet. One can walk from the house to the city centre, and also to the main shopping araes. The house has a living room, a bedroom, a small but fully equipped kitchen. One inconvenience, especially for a French: do not dream of cooking a steak, the smoke alarm is over-sensitive and will simply not let you do i! There is a back garden that one can use to have a drink or diner at evening time, unfortunately the weather did not permit me to use it as much as I would have wanted. While the inside is well maintained, it is certainly not new, but this is clearly advertised, no surprise there. I found the house quite cosy, it was a pleasure for me to come back there at evening time after work The host is very responsive, communication with her is quite easy. I stayed in this unit for a little less than 3 months. All in allI enjoyed the experience very much.
