The location is very nice. In a quiet street, close to the airport, to various shops and bus stops. It's close to many interesting locations and towns. The house is very beautiful and old and carries a sense of stepping into history, which I enjoyed very much. The room was spacious, clean and very comfortable. The hosts were very nice and helpful. I would definitely visit again and recommend it to friends.
