Here is one of our previous guest's review:

I had a wonderful experience during the couple of months I spent in Ellen's cottage. Let me tell you why:
First, the cottage is nicely arranged and composed; fully equipped and with a very comfortable bed!
Then, the neighborhood is peaceful and the proximity to campus without being in the crowd, plus public transports and stores is enjoyable.
Finally, not only Ellen has a great experience of life and sense of humor to share but she can also speak many languages and will be delighted to help you.
