Their responsiveness was impeccable, and I even had some feline friends to keep me company, adding a touch of charm! 😺 And let's not forget about the luxurious, sprawling bed that provided the utmost comfort. The atmosphere exudes serenity, and without a doubt, I'd eagerly rebook with Jojo for future visits.
