The place was really nice in a safe neighbourhood. the room was beautiful with a little garden to go outside. The bathroom was huge. The breakfast was delicious. We asked them to pick us up from the airport and was perfect. The house is decorated with a lot of taste and the owner is really friendly, we had interesting conversations! We had to leave in the afternoon back to our country and he offered the room for us to stay until then because it was empty for the moment. Just perfect.
