November 4, 2021We enjoyed every moment when we were there. The hosts are very friendly and welcoming and make sure their guests are put first. It is walking distance from town and close to all the attractions. One can enjoy a quite and comfortable sleep at night. The breakfast is delicious and prepared neatly, with much precision and of very high quality.
