Ros H., Reading, United Kingdom

Very comfortable and great location
This property does have slightly unusual layout but it really worked for our family of four including 2 teenagers, with them taking the upstairs bedrooms. The location is perfect - very near the metro line, only 5 mins walk, and the restaurants and bars in the same area give a huge choice of places to eat and drink. The garden out the back was also a nice option to have. The accommodation layout means there is no living area, but we really did not find this an issue, as the downstairs bedroom can be used as a communal area if needed. The property was spotless, the kitchen well equipped and the beds very comfortable. Lois was easy to contact with any questions and very fast to relpy. Overall a really good find, and exceptional value for money.

Great holiday and really helpful owner
My family stayed here for four nights at the beginning of September 2011. The apartment is in a nice building in a really good location - two blocks from the Metro and a supermarket just round the corner. The furnishings were of a really good standard - loved the big beds! Really safe neighbourhood and no need for a car, but we rented one and Lois helped us get a parking permit. Also, many thanks to Lois for sending back the cash and phone that we left by accident - great service and very much appreciated. Would definitely recommend this apartment.

DC weekend
Great place with the essentials. Right off the Metro and within walking distance of several grocery stores. We parked our car in the park lot recommended with no issues. The kitchen had everything to cook a meal. Also very affordable. If we go back, would stay there again.

Location, Location, Location!
Tucked in a quiet neighborhood, two blocks from the Metro station and large grocery store; two or three blocks from excellent dining, including Michelin-starred Makan. Ample room for a family in this 2-story, 2 full bath duplex with full-size W/D. Excellent communication with the owner and property manager. We did not go out at night in this area; Uber recommended as opposed to public transport if clubbing or out at a show. Overall, we strongly recommend and would stay here again!
