This is an excellent air b n b listing. I enjoyed staying here. Very clean with shiny counters, sinks, and floor. The hosts, Vicky and Lidan are very friendly and responsive.

We found the place easily. The instructions were very good. We were surprised that the sofa was so small, being described as cozy. We were also disappointed to find no coffee or tea. Everything else was fine. The bed was super comfortable. The shower was great.
