Laila’s place was fun despite the fact that there is serious construction happening right outside the door. If you’re not bothered by some morning and daytime noise (and the workman’s music) you’ll will be fine. The grand charm and somewhat epic scale goes pretty far to make up for it.
It’s a large space to roll around in, and the photos are accurate. The original woodwork and wall treatments are beautiful. The bed was very comfy and I slept like a log- although I’m pretty deaf. The shower area is pleasant and was spotless. It’s in a loft over the bedroom, but because of the very high ceilings there’s no compromise on space. Just watch your head under the stairs!
The patio is right off the kitchen, which is fully equipped, minus an oven. We had a couple of meals there. But- there are mosquitoes. We weren’t bit, but make sure to keep the windows closed before dusk.
The very sunny Laila was on hand to greet us and see us off, and very available for questions or advice.
Unless you are sensitive to noise, I’d recommend Laila’s place. I was fond of it.
