Maria and her husband were most gracious and helpful hosts. The room was far above the expectations and a great deal for the location. We felt like we had our own apartment, with the living area that is included. Maria was kind enough to provide directions to her home prior to our arrival and even provided updated train tables when our connection was delayed, as well as multiple suggestions on food and a pub to watch a World Cup match. The bed is fantastic, and the blackout curtains made it hard to get out of bed each morning :)
