“Clean, welcoming stay.”
The host is welcoming, they work at the bakery across the street which is perfect for breakfast the next morning. The rooms were clean, there is a nice garden area to relax in, as well as a place to handwash and airdry clothes.

“Clean and comfortable.”
Room was really clean and comfortable. Washing machine available behind the bakery for 5 euro and a good drying area at the back of the accommodation. The owner, when we eventually met, was really nice.

“Charming house with charming rooms. Quaint like a B&B.”
A quaint house with bedrooms rented to individual clients. Decor was charming. Owns Bakery across the road which was delicious!! We met our housemates and shared wine we bought at the dining table. No staff is in the house so it was private.
