Steve and Mubi were wonderful and extremely accommodating. The rooms were excellent and clean. The location was also perfect with everything within walking distance. The only request I would make would be for a safe in our room. Just for our passports. I cannot say enough how our stay was enhanced by how wonderful Steve and Mubi were. They made our stay memorable and excellent.
