"Stayed with Suzette and Rob for 10 days. We loved the breakfast and the warm hospitality. Nice to see that they really seem to enjoy running the guest house and at the same time also enjoy eachother. The only minor might be the noise of the traffic, wich by the way deceases after 21:30. Good value for money ! "
