The property was very private with a nice pool and chill area. The little flat we had was perfect for our stay, with a living room, bedroom and bathroom. We shared the kitchen with the hosts, which resulted in interesting chats with them and we got some inside tipps of where to go and what to see. Overall, i would definitely recommend this place to everyone.
