Excellent place to stay

We just completed our stay at this home and it was lovely. The location is great, it was clean and well laid out and I would recommend it. And super comfy beds too! The host is wonderful, very responsive and helpful. The keys are a tiny bit confusing as to which goes to which door but we sorted it out. Excellent restaurants nearby and a handy quick mart just down the street a bit.
