This is a difficult review to write as in my nearly 6 years of exclusive use of Airbnb for my travel, I have never had to write a negative review. Contrary to the other reviews of Manuela's hosting, we felt strongly that she misrepresented her services and tried to take advantage. We had a horrible time here, firstly because of events leading up to our stay and the first night, which affected our whole stay. Secondly, the mosquitoes here are from another world - never have we been attacked so ferociously or constantly woken up in the night by the buzzing. It was difficult to relax anywhere after the way we were bitten. If it were not for that, it is possible to stay here comfortably as the apartment is cute and clean with bathroom and appliances working well. We booked the place as we were charmed by previous guests' reviews of her hospitality, helpfulness, pictures and down to earth living. We enjoy meeting people and sharing in experiences so from what we read on her page and reviews we thought we had found a good match. We expressed our interest in dining with her and taking part in her 'funny cooking class'. She said it would be €80 for the class and €50 to eat with her. We were surprised at the high cost because as Airbnb hosts ourselves we've been happy for guests to join us for dinner at home and never dreamed of charging them, or that much for that matter. We therefore thought she must make a big effort and decided it would be nice and worth it. She arranged for the dinner to be our first night as we'd be tired from travelling and the class the night after. Prior to arrival we wrote to ask about recommendations for what to do in the area in case she had better ideas than what we planned. We also decided to pull out of the first night's dinner. She wrote back offering to be a guide and said she charges €50 per day. We declined and asked whether it would be possible to use her bicycles, which we read in a guest's review were available free of charge. She said sure, and then suggested some horseriding lessons. Feeling like there was a lot of fees being mentioned, we replied that we were budget/diy travellers and that we were already 'splashing out' for her cooking class which we anticipated would be really nice. She also changed the date to the first night but we agreed as we thought she needed to. On arrival, the atmosphere was a little strange, welcoming but a little funny that she was insisting that the mosquitoes buzzing around us were bees and that we must have disturbed them on our way in as they were not there before we arrived. Okay. We had 15 minutes rest and then met her in the kitchen to do the class. She confessed that she didn't really...
