Perfectly located, spotlessly clean, well equipped, and with excellent attention to detail. Generous welcome goodies, and fresh flowers. Hosts are always friendly and helpful.

Spoke to the owner a few days before gave me all the information I needed and reassured me that if anything was wrong to get in touch straight away of course, we didn't need to. The apartment was spotlessly clean, milk, wine and biscuits left which was a nice touch. A perfect place to stop in a beautiful location.
