This is a well kept, older home in a nice location. The host was very attentive and helpful. The bunkbeds upstairs are sleepable, but definitely at the end of their life. Pull out couch is damaged and not good for sleeping. Otherwise, the beds are very nice and the accommodation is quite satisfactory. We would recommend for families looking for lodging close to town.
