I can’t say enough good things about this stay! Firstly, this exceptional stay is 100% down to the most kind and welcoming hosts. The couple who run this inn have helped us the whole time during our stay and been the most accommodating, I’m very grateful to have found this place. The room itself is very cosy and clean. The location is very central, everything was within 15mins walk or bus. Would recommend packing light as there are only stairs, but the hosts very kindly helped us with our luggage.
