Honestly speaking, I think our hosts spent a good time trying to make sure the place looks unique and comfortable for the guests! The biggest highlight: The View from the balcony and main bedroomMost other places won't have a comfortable sofa bed but for this place, they had a Koala brand sofa bed and it was so comfortable for ny 8 year old to sleep so that he did not have to worry about falling off the bed! They even provide a bed for our dog so then I didn't have to bring my portable dog house for my dog to sleep in :) and yes it was clean!Our hosts were always within few minutes reach via message to answer our questions and they were accommodating till the very end. We had a lovely relaxing time as a family of 5 and our fam dog!Just bear in mind that the inside of the living room is not big but that did not provide any problems for us as a family. Thank you so much for having us over at your beautiful place!

Thank you very much for the fantastic review, we are very happy that you enjoyed your time at our place. Catherine was a pleasure to deal with, very communicative and respectful. The family as a whole clearly respected the property and followed the house guide. We highly recommend them and very much appreciate the experience. Best regards, Chris and Jess.
