The location was great, and the room was clean and comfortable. The only thing that I didn't like was the host's response to the text, but overall, it was a great stay, and I will stay again.

We were in room 1, without air conditioning. Window open was comfortable but noisy. The house was quiet in the daytime and the common areas comfortable.
