Good place to stay

This was a good place to stay. Lovely home inside. There were a couple of things that could be better like locks on the doors or just the bathrooms and also a bigger door for the downstairs bathroom. And bed was a bit hard but honestly it was a good experience to stay and learn the city and other things
