Excellent affordable and comfortable accommodation with super hosts who were flexible and helpful.

9.0

A very warm welcome from the hosts. Clearly explained house rules, keys, breakfast time, and check out, which was flexible. No problem in bringing takeaway for a later evening meal. Spacious bedroom with en suite. All very clean, neat, and tidy. Very informal and inclusive, with all staff enjoying and making an effort to help you enjoy your stay.

I would have appreciated blackout curtains, as the room's early-morning ambient light could be distracting. There was no soap in the bathroom.
