very nice stay, extremely nice host.
Pros:

Very nice service, chatted with host, very friendly and helpful, e.g. arranged for trip to railway station, flexible with checking out time, stored bags, etc. Wonderful location close to the river, nice traditional house.

Cons:

room did not have windows, but that was indicated when booking. For one night ok, if i had stayed longer, would have chosen another room.

Disappointing owner
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Very hard mattress. But what was worse is the following: We booked this property for 6nights, and we paid a total of 150euros upon checkin in cash. The property does not have a card machine so we have nothing to prove it, even though it is pretty obvious that a guest pays the price as booked. 2 weeks after checkout we received a notification from booking.com advising that the property amended the total price paid by us to 28euros. We questioned it and explained that we paid a total of 150e. It sounds like the property amended the price to 29eur (4.83e a night, what a joke) to avoid paying commissions to booking.com. Very unethical from the owner.

Pros:

It was clean. There was a communal balcony that was nice to drink your morning coffee.

Cons:

The pictures showed a beautiful balcony on the river. That balcony did not exist. The guest house opened up onto the road, not the pictures shown.

Disappointing
Pros:

Nothing really

Cons:

I usually never complain, as we are super easy going but if you can find somewhere else, do.
There are plenty of another homestay/hostel in town.
I know there is day with and day without but we didn't exchange even a simply smile during our stay..
