It was a nice little guesthouse. It was a little dirty. But the host was great. There needed to be more linens and towels. Overall it was nice. I was a little confused when I realized the guesthouse was not the place I thought I was paying for. The price was very affordable though!!

Thank you for staying with us and for your feedback! I’m glad you enjoyed the guesthouse and found the price affordable. The listing does mention the unit is behind the main house as a guesthouse, I’m sorry to hear it didn’t feel spotless when you arrived, I’ll review that with my cleaning team. Both beds do include duvets whitch include full linens, but I’ll be sure to add extra blankets and towels for even more comfort. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts and helping us improve!
Thank you for the great review, you’re welcome back anytime!
