a good stay!

friendly host secure spot

the host was so friendly and helpful, assisting us with a secure spot for our bikes right away. i really appreciated how clean and well-kept everything was! it was such a happy experience.

the room i stayed in faced a constantly busy main road, and the noise was quite loud. it made getting a good night's sleep a bit difficult.
