Sweet Little Space

The hosts were very kind and the property was indeed beautiful. The guesthouse was immaculately clean and had so many thoughtful amenities. The sofa bed was definitely not the most comfortable, however it's a sofabed and I'm not sure there's one in existence that's actually suitable for sleep when you're no longer a teenager. The neighborhood was definitely peaceful and out of the way, which is what we wanted. I definitely feel like the space is more suited to people who won't spend much time there. Meaning you plan to spend most of your time out and about rather than staying in. All in all, it was a beautiful space. You can tell that Susan and her husband put a lot of time and effort into making it a sweet little space to get away.
