    It was nice that the room was clean and comfortable during the stay. And it was easy to stay because it was a unique space and a quiet guesthouse. Hanna was kind, and she was very helpful to us during the trip.

    There was a garden in the city center, so it was good to drink coffee while looking at the garden on the terrace! The clean interior and fluffy bedding gave me comfort. It was nice that Hanna and her mom were kind! If I have a chance next...
