    We loved the place! Helena is very friendly, we felt welcomed and comfortable. The room was clean and cozy. Dogs are charming and well-behaved. Everything we needed was nearby. Great experience. 5 out of 5.

    I had a very comfortable stay, the house was easy to find, very clean and tastefully decorated, and Helena was a very pleasant and welcoming hostess. Would definitely recommend.

    Everything was perfect

    Five stars – definitely worth the stay! This place was a peaceful escape just a short 20-minute bus ride from the hustle and bustle of downtown. The bed was incredibly comfortable—honestly, the most comfortable one of our entire trip! Plus, the dogs were absolute sweethearts and added such a warm, friendly touch to the stay. Highly recommend if you're looking for a cozy, relaxing place with easy access to the city. Mall is 10 minutes walk. Supermarket next to the house. And the host was amazing too.

    A very cozy and home-like place with thoughtful hosts. It’s not in the city center, but just a short walk from a bus stop that gets you there in about 25 minutes. There’s also a Chinese noodle café nearby that stays open until midnight.

    It is kind of far from the city center. It is well connected by bus, but in the evening, the buses don't leave often enough. As a tourist, you will also need cash for the bus and only coins are accepted.

    The host was very nice and helpful. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom was also nice.

    1. Being almost at Genius level 3 on Booking.com which means that I have booked more than 10 locations in a 2 year window, it was the worst experience so far. 2. We were shocked that upon arrival at the property, the host asked us to remove our shoes to enter the property and the room was located on the first floor. 3. The host was not very welcoming and she did not even introduce herself. 4. We only had access to the room including the bathroom that we have booked. 5. None of the facilities listed for this property on Booking.com were mentioned by the host upon arrival. The host only stated that we could use the kitchen to prepare Tea / Coffee but she did not even showed us where the ingredients and the oven, etc were located. Nothing was mentioned whether we would be provided Tea / Coffee or we would have to use our own. 6. Nothing was mentioned about the WIFI and we were not provided with WIFI access. 7. Nothing was mentioned about the seating area and we had to purchase food and eat it in the room itself. 8. Nothing was mentioned about the other services available at the property. Quote from Booking.com (Modern Amenities: The property features a kitchenette, washing machine, and a fully equipped kitchen with a refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, and oven. Additional amenities include a dining area, work desk, and free toiletries.) except free toiletries. 9. There was a large dressing area in the room but it already contained stuffs for other people and we were not sure whether we were allowed to use it. Thus we left all our luggage in the car for our entire stay. 10. The bathroom also contained several used products and we were under the impression that there is a person which used the room and the bathroom permanently. 11. All the facilities that have been mentioned on Booking.com were not available for us apart the Room and Bathroom. 12.

    1. The property is located not very far from the city centre. 2. The bed was very comfortable and clean towels were provided. 3. Parking space was available.

    Where shall I start? 1) There were 2 dogs and I am allergic to dogs - no one wrote or told that there are dogs. 2) The room was dirty, including the bathroom and the towels. 3) The host - was rude and unfriendly. I really really don‘t recommend anyone to come here. Invest some more euros and either find a better AirBnB or stay in a proper hotel!

    The house is like airbnb house, each room given to somebody else. As being woman, solo traveler, I felt extremely uncomfortable and unsafe. But luckly other rooms were booked by other ladies. Also, main entrance doors were never locked. When I was about to leave the house once, a guy in front of main entrance door noticed me standing behind the door and run away. The house heating was not on. The house was cold. Especially taking shower was difficult. Water heating was electronic, there were also boiler in the house. The hot water was not always available. When boiler turn on, it was making enormous noise. We were allowed to use the kitchen. Even with simple sandwich preparation and eating on the table bothered whoever the white old guy is. I dont think they like anyone using the kitchen. I could realise that I was being watched out. While waiting my friend to pick me, I wanted to sit in seating area for a few minutes, but the same guy said guests are not allowed even if written opposite. I wanted to use washing machine. Again you get unwelcome approach. The doors were making noise because all rooms are very near to each other. No privacy too. Anyone can hear the other guests. The location is a bit far to town center. A bus every 15 min available. But after 9 pm, taking longer.
