Gregory from United States (10/10)
Our hosts were fantastic from start to finish, always very communicative and in close touch concerning any questions we had. They made check-in and check-out super easy, including safe storage of our luggage when desiring to pick it up later in the day after check-out. The beds were very comfortable, bathrooms were super clean, and the air-conditioning was perfectly easy to control for the different personal tastes of our group members.
