Summary: The Chances is a comfortable and warm cottage, well situated near the city centre. It's on a quiet street, with a supermarket and several fast food places close by. The heat pump, other heaters, plenty of blankets and hot water bottles makes it a warm place in winter, and it gets good light in the morning. Well equipped kitchen (the fridge is small though), and a good bathroom. The photos provide an accurate picture of the home. Check-in and check-out was very easy. The host was welcoming, but not intrusive (they live next door). We would highly recommend the Chances.
