    We stayed at Bianca and Eric’s for 3 nights and loved it. Their spaces are cozy and clean, and they provide all that’s needed for a great stay. Above all else, their hospitality is remarkable. Highly suggest all to visit their place!

    We had the chance to stay in the seperate little house next to the main one and it was GREAT. You have everything you need in the kitchen and bathroom. Although the house is pretty small, it’s very cozy and it doesn’t feel like you’re cramped up....

    Upgrade was welcome, allowing me the privacy of my own self-contained quarters with kitchen, lounge. and outdoor area next to a water channel, all well appointed and maintained. Good location, just a few minutes from the rail station, and quiet....
