The staff were really nice. However there were some problems with the equipment: one toilet's flush button got stuck and we had to turn of the water tap to stop wasting water, the dish water's seal was jammed when a guest started it. Good things about the place: there are free cakes in the kitchen and food (rice, noodles, instant coffee, etc) left there by previous guests on a kitchen shelf.

We booked a family room.They gave us their alternate location "Grotta". The room was huge, and it was bright with lots of sun. They also invited us for coffee and cake in the morning. My family really enjoyed the stay. Highly recommended.

House was very cute. The ceiling was VERY sloped in the Interpol room, and I couldn't stand in most of the room - I did hit my head a couple times getting out of the bed as well. If you are tall, I'd probably skip this room. Property was pretty clean as well, but there was a very strong fragrance in the room.
