Comfortable stay, Great hosts

The stay was really good and comfortable. The hosts waited for us to check-in and were very nice. Room was very nice, clean and comfortable. Breakfast was made as per our requests specially since I am vegetarian. The hosts gave us recommendations for local sites. The garden outside the room was very beautiful as well!
