homemade breadcoffee station
The breakfast included homemade bread and fresh pancakes. There was also a coffee and tea station that I used. A fridge was available. The room was clean, and the bed was comfortable. I found everything I needed for my days.
The shared bathroom could use some updating.

The host watched us closely during breakfast. I found this uncomfortable and unwelcoming. They seemed upset if we misplaced something even slightly.
