The units come with carpeted floor and feature a fully equipped kitchen with a dishwasher, a dining area, a flat-screen TV with streaming services, and a shared bathroom with bidet and a hair dryer. At the homestay, each unit comes with bed linen and towels. We recently had the pleasure of staying at Heather's wonderful shared stay@10 Airbnb and I can't say enough good things about this place! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with nothing but warmth and hospitality that made us feel right at home. The Space: The accommodation was immaculate, beautifully decorated, and equipped with all the modern amenities one could ask for. The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep after a day of socialising with friends. The kitchen was fully stocked, making it easy to prepare meals, and the living area was cozy and inviting. The Host: Our host was exceptional! We love staying where we can interact with the host and have meaningful conversations about the world and life experiences. Heather was so accommodating in this area as we chatted about the concepts of the world and what our future holds. To this day, Heather still messages making sure that we are ok and dare I say, she has become one of our friends, thankful to this trip. Location: Nestled in a charming neighbourhood, the location was perfect for us to be able to visit friends and to local shops. It was a peaceful area and offered a retreat away from the hustle and bustle of everything. Overall experience: I can't wait to return. I miss Heather already. I miss her home already. Thank you for sharing you home with us Heather. Thank you for giving us a home away from home. Stay safe and until next time.

I appreciated the small fridge in the room, pressure in the shower and how quiet it was at night. I also walked to town and it was easy and fun. There’s a lot to do in this part of the world! Thanks for the great stay Lisa and Andy!

The owner welcomed us with open arms, and could not have been more helpful upon our arrival.
