The room was lovely, the bathroom high quality, the host was lovely and made sure we felt welcome. The host cooked fantastic breakfast and there was so much to choose from. The one thing I guess I wasn't expecting was that the host would be living in the same building, and that there was an expectation of noise levels to be kept low late at night for this reason and for the sake of the other guests (should there be others staying). This didn't impact our stay and wouldn't impact many guests, but worth noting.
