Pros: The price was great, the man at the desk was exceptionally helpful and friendly (found me a doctor immediately when I got sick and also helped us with getting around).

Upon an early arrival, I was greeted by the owner. She was extremely pleasant and helpful. I arrived via train way before the check in time. She told me I could store my luggage in the luggage room till check in time, especially if I wanted to go sightseeing and not waste my time. I asked her if there was... More
