We had a very pleasant stay with Susan. The grounds are beautiful and the apartment was quiet, which I appreciate. It was very clean, up to my standards of clean, which is saying something! The small kitchen was well appointed with all the necessities. I was surprised how comfortable the bed was as I've stayed places with horrible beds. And the bathroom was large, with a bathtub! It seems bathtubs are not so easily found these days. I would definitely book again. As a matter of fact, I would have loved to have had more time there.

Beautiful property, but very remote. Nothing within walking distance and road to get there was very narrow and twisty. Hostess was so nice. Orange trees just feet from the from door provided sounds of happy birds and fresh morning juice - yum!

A fantastic place!

This was such a quaint and peaceful place to stay. It was so quiet, too. The neighborhood was beautiful and a great place to take a walk if you wanted. It felt like we were far removed from the busyness of the city, but it was actually only minutes to everything.Susan was so welcoming and kind. The place was in immaculate condition.
