The house is beautiful and clean. The owners are extremely friendly, and genuinely want you to have a comfortable stay. A little more attention to the small details will go a long way is making this a five-star property. Specifically, a little more attention to the kitchen small appliances, better quality knives (dull knives are very dangerous), and other small details. Provide toilet paper and paper towels.
