Bel has a very comfortable, tasteful and clean home furnished with beautiful objects and colorful art. The photos don't do her home justice. The rooms are much more spacious with ample storage space. The bed is very comfortable, dressed in quality linen. My room had a shared bathroom and though I spent more time in the house than an everage tourist -- I was in a 3-day workshop nearby -- I never once clashed with other guests in the bathroom. Bel herself is a warm and welcoming hostess that also gives you total privacy. She knows and loves her neighborhood and all her recommendations are spot on: excellent coffee shops, bakeries and restaurants are just around the corner. I would highly recommend her place to anyone.
