We like Airbnb: it brought us most of our guests and 213 reviews we are proud of. But when you book here, nothing goes to a platform, and we can afford to be more flexible: a later check-out when the calendar allows it, a cot without asking twice, a call the evening before to agree the time.
Prices are synchronised every day with the same dynamic pricing we use on Airbnb, minus 8%, so you will never find a cheaper rate there for the same dates. If you ever do, write to us and we will match it. Returning guests get a further 10% with their personal code.
