Liked: Amenities
It was an old house in very good condition and loaded with many interesting things. There was a nice patio with a bench swing. The bed was very comfortable. We were the only ones booked at that time so we had the whole house to ourselves. Upstairs there are two bedrooms with a shared bath.

An okay place to stay
This was an okay place to stay. The owner/host was extremely nice. However, although advertised as a bed & breakfast with a “full breakfast from 8:30 to 9:30”, there was no breakfast. The owner said she stopped that when Covid started. It seems like some provisions could have been made. Like danishes, yogurt, juice, water, something, in the fridge. Also, there was no air conditioning in our room & the bathroom was extremely small.
