We were very pleased with our choice of property in Nelson, and would highly recommend it to others. The location was fantastic, just a block or two from the heart of downtown - it was a quick, safe walk downtown to all the wonderful shops and restaurants, also a big grocery store an easy walk away.
The place was exactly as the photos showed and plenty large for 4 adults, as was our case. Most notably, the kitchen was a dream to work in, every convenience or tool you needed was on hand, with lovely dishes and serving vessels. Chara checked on us via messaging to ensure we had everything we needed and I got the impression she would have hustled right over if we asked for something that wasn't there.
Beds and furniture were very comfortable and there wasn't a complaint from anyone in our group.
And just to address the proximity of the train tracks...unless you happened to be awake and in the living room by the large windows or were out on the balcony when it passed, you wouldn't even know. None of us did. And I have to say it was a pleasant novelty to be standing with glass of wine in hand as the train slowly passed beneath us shortly after we arrived, the train conductor giving us a friendly wave. Loved it!
