The family was soo nice and we felt very welcome and comfortable. The WiFi was excellent! Also good price. We would not stay again. One thing was the noice. Our window was only shutters towards were everybody walk so we were woken up and it was hard to relax ever, even with earplugs. Also it was very very dirty both inside and outside (animal poop). We have traveled for 9 months so we are not fuzzy. Even the clean towels gave away cat and dog hair. Really bad pillows.

I loved staying here! It was exactly what I was looking for and I was so happy to land here. It has the feel of a homestay. You share the kitchen with the family and they are super friendly and helpful. The room was great! Bathroom was pretty standard. Shower was very slippery at first because there was still some soap residue from being cleaned. So, be careful when entering for the first time. Turning the water flow down makes the shower more hot, which is explained in the welcome binder, but I didn't read

We loved our time at Casa l’x, it felt like our home away from home with the lovely hosts there. Great location. Would recommend!
