We had a wonderful stay...the views really are fantastic, the neighborhood is quiet, parking right in front of the cottage or right across the street was never an issue, and the entire property is quite comfortable. There is a perfect small sitting area in the back bedroom for reading or getting work done. The gas fireplace was a very nice touch our first night, when the weather was rainy; we were blessed with lovely weather the rest of our stay and spent a lot of time out on the back deck.
The kitchen was quite well stocked. I do wish there was a coffee grinder, but it had just about everything else one would want (other than a dishwasher but that is pointed out in the listing and wasn't a big deal at all), including sharp knives, plenty of nice glassware and dishes, and a supply of basic spices. There were also plenty of towels and linens, laundry soap, foil, and other basic household supplies. Lots of storage areas and big closets.
You'd have to walk up and down some rather steep streets to get to the closest shops and restaurants but we did order delivery once and that was a breeze. Besides, the fact that the place is at the top of a hill is what makes the views so great. Truly panoramic.
Highly recommended. Indeed, we liked this vacation rental so much that we booked our next stay before we left, and next time we will stay longer. Thank you to our terrific and responsive hosts for a great time!
