Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Roger G. 12 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### just a heads up If you're like us you tend to look at the reviews closely to make a decision, so here are comments/reviews that are not meant to discourage anyone from renting this location but rather to set the expectations. this is an old family home with multiple quarters; the older couple that own the place and actually live in the main quarters are lovely and friendly. the part we got was on the upper level; if you are like us and would like to prepare some food in the locations you book, this place has limited kitchen appliances and utensils. it is also located in a very small town away from everything, so having your own vehicle is very important. considering these comments and if you're OK with them we'd still recommend this place. Best. ##### Roger G.
