EVERYTHING!! My hosts were the BEST. Quick response to my late check in, even waited for me and still showed us around. So so friendly. The BnB itself is in a beautiful, tranquil location close to everything at the same time. The rooms are squuuuicky CLEAN and we had the BEST sleep in their firm mattresses (we actually want to get the brand of bed they have that's how comfy it is) We were treated to a beautiful breakfast with a fruit, homemade yogurt and muesli. Followed by a choice of breakfast so delicious, homely and warmly served. We left so inspired by our hosts' hospitality and the friendly staff. Definitely coming back here
