Price! I read the reviews and curious if any of them wanted to be in a 5 star hotel? This is someones home that is used for rental rooms. I really enjoyed my short stay. The coded doors were a little confusing: email sent one code that wasnt correct and needed two to completely access my room. Thank you to the owners. Raise your price to at least$99. I'm sure you'll get better people :-)
