Even though Mariannica doesn't know English very well, we were able to communicate, she was very friendly and flexible. Her house is a bit far from the city center but there are bus stops nearby, so this wasn't a problem for us. The room was clean, but the quiet garden, full of flowers and plants, was what I enjoyed the most. And her lovely dog, of course! ( except its noisy toy). Overall I would say that the house looks better in real life than in pictures.
