Good Stay in Beautiful Townhouse

The hostess immediately. The house is beautiful and my room was perfect and super clean. It included everything I needed for a few nights. I think i slept better than i have done in months. The little touches in the room did not go unnoticed, from the luggage matt, to the water and good coffee.
The bathroom was a little unusual. The room and the bed seemed a bit old. The price was a little high.
