Enjoyable stay at Colin and Shima's. Warmly received, and well attended over the whole stay.
Great breakfasts. Towels provided, comfortable beds and quiet rooms.
We got there with 2 kids who didn't mind walking to the house from the subway and bus.
I will recommend the place to friends, and would come back if another opportunity presents.

We stayed five nights and were very satisfied. It´s a nice house, very clean and warm, and nice beds too. And Colin and his wife (sorry, we didn´t get your name) were very kind and helpful, it was really nice to get to know them and sorry to have to leave you. Their breakfasts were very good and rich, too. We can highly recommend this place for other guests.
