Fantastic spacious apartment with everything you could need. Spotless clean. Amazing views of the city from all rooms. Owner was great with instructions and to respond to issues and gave lots of recommendations of places to eat and drink. Comfortable beds and washer dryer was an added bonus.

Location, Security & Staff - Aayu Stewart is one of the best places I've stayed in of all my travels. Location is very strategic, you could simply walk around from all the good places Georgetown has to offer. Give it 3 to 10 minute walk and you're there. It's literally, right in the middle! Security wise, the neighborhood is very safe and quiet. Passcodes from the main door and to the room is very simple to follow. Shane and his family are very welcoming and very efficient. What's amazing about this place is that it is very well-kept but you won't even see the staff going around the house. Meaning to say, you still get your own privacy and the chance to enjoy the place all to yourself. Comfort & Cleanliness - I would have to disagree with one of the comments here that there are bedbugs in this place. There is just none. The bed is very comfortable, sheets are very clean with a very fluffy comforter and pillows. Bath towels and face towels are provided (which is just the best!), bathroom is very clean with hand soaps, bath soaps, and shampoo for you too! Shane and his family even provided a baby cot and a baby tub for my 2 year old daughter (without us asking). And the room smells good as well. Downstairs they have the common area where you will find the kitchen and dining area. Aayu Stewart did a good job on making these areas functional yet so cozy to enjoy with. They have a fridge, a microwave, kettle and dining utensils and a washing machine at your dispense. Humble snacks and drinks (coffee & chocolate drinks) are also provided. Value for Money - I couldn't say more about this place. It has everything we needed as a family of 3, who stayed at their Deluxe King room for 4 comfortable nights. It's amazingly cheap for all the things it has to offer honestly, without compromising on anything. It's just the perfect place to stay be it short-term or long-term.

Nice, simple, clean, cosy, “ikea style”, good location, friendly staff. Yes it’s a bit noisy but I prefer noise with windows rather than silenses and no day light. So for me it was totally fine. Also the room is very spacious which is a big plus compare to other places
