    Amazing - this was a suite rather than just a room. It included a small living room with kitchenette, in addition to the bedroom. We loved staying here. Also included breakfast.

    It was so nice to have a small kitchen with our room. Breakfast foods provided were good and we could heat them in our microwave and eat at the table. The host was very nice and helped us feel welcome.

    I had made the booking for family members and they were very impressed with the room and the service in general. The host was very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!
