The room door had 1cm cap between door and door frame (no privacy). The first feeling entering was that we were disturbing them. First communication was give me your credit card, not showing but taking. In leaving was very unfriendly, no have a good day, how was your stay, please come again….. so we don‘t come again.

It is a beautiful property. The room was really nice except the mattress was too soft and needs to be replaced. I knew that if I slept in the bed my back would be in bad shape the next day. I slept on the trundle bed which was really hard but a better option.
