This was a room in a house with a shared bathroom which was well stocked and clean. We had access to a full kitchen, large dining area, a balcony. The room was nice and the area was nice in a small town that felt safe. Lovely house with nice amenities in the lobby area as well.

Very comfortable yet very small room. Shared bath and kitchen making it nice to meet other travelers and make a real meal. They had a nespresso machine which was a real treat! The outside needs some TLC, the view is stunning and you really can’t enjoy it as there is no place to sit in (outside of the kitchen table) or outside. The lawn was overgrown and there was discarded furniture, etc outside. The place is a treasure, just could use some outside maintenance. Would stay again

I booked at the last minute and they absolutely communicated every little detail so that when I arrived after midnight, I knew exactly what to do. I didn’t wake anybody and it made it so easy. It was so comfortable and in a beautiful location. I wish I could’ve stayed longer. I will definitely go back. The kitchen was well appointed there’s a little coffee bar on the first floor and then a beautiful dining room and kitchen on the second floor very very comfortable.
