My husband and I had a great stay at the cottage! Upon arrival and throughout the trip, there was continuing construction on their block throughout the 2 weeks we stayed, however, this is a part of city life and wasn't too noticeable. Our host was SUPER responsive and kind. She even bought a new toaster for the bnb after we requested one. There are thoughtful touches throughout the space, like blankets, new sponges for cleaning dishes, and an extending table. We had a bit of trouble with the internet connection, as we were both working regularly through the trip, but it was something we should have accounted for ourselves, and i'm sure if we would have mentioned it, Kathleen would have been more than responsive. The washer and dryer were SO NICE to have. The space itself is like a small studio. This ended up being perfect for us. There are plenty of places to walk and a nice park next door where you can skate or be outside ( once the smoke clears). We had a fantastic time overall and really suggest this place!
