Beautiful, quaint farm house, great amenities, 2 toilets and 1 shower. The courtyard was a lovely sitting area for outdoor dining. But, the listing was dishonest. We expected to be in the city, close to dining options, and all the tourist and historical sites, based on the address listed and the map on the listing. But, it was out of the city, a 30 minute walk from the cathedral and the centre city. This was disappointing. We were given the actual address just before arriving. As well, there were ants in the house, and we had to throw out food.
