If you’re looking for clean….
We have traveled and stayed in many places, and this is by far the most clean we have been to. The location is perfect for all the sight seeing. And the hosts are great. We have nothing negative to say. Beds were very comfy. We stayed for 8 days, cooked a lot, and did not miss not having a stove top.
