Be advised, it is not a “mini” house that you would think it is by the title, or description.

What you should know….this is NOT just a mini house. It was a home that had history in the city and the family that purchased it, had it for over 100 years. Yes, a lot of history, but not at all what you would think reading the title or the description. Having said that, the tour guide was AMAZING. We booked the Spanish tour by mistake, our fault, but she went above and beyond by telling us in English as well. She made this tour for sure! Had it not been for her, it would have been a 1 star from me.
