"I was distressed when I learned that the street in front was torn up for reconstruction, but s it turned out that wasn't any problem at all. The property itself is charming with a lovely 19th century feel, like visiting your aunt in the old family home if she happened to love to keep things all clean and polished. It's just a few steps to parks and ice cream spots and swimming, but not noisy at all at night. And it's also just a few steps from the railiroad station. Breakfast is at a cafe a few blocks away. That ight be a problem in cold rainy weather, but in August was fine, and the breakfasts were very nice. Happy I stayed there."
