This was a great spot. Good location just up the hill from town. Back in a quiet street. Bed was comfy. Pillows were good. And the host was great with communication.

I had a great two night stay here. It’s immaculately clean and comfortable. The bed is great! Kitchen is well appointed and shower had great water pressure. I’d say be forewarned that if you plan to stay around the home all day, you’re likely to hear motorbikes riding on the open land out back. I was gone most of the day, so it wasn’t a bother. It was a really nice place to come back to after a day spent in the park. Recommend!
