A bed of roses 

This phrase describes a comfortable, pleasant, easy or happy situation.

“Being self-employed in Central Europe is not a bed of roses.”

Origin
The idiom probably originated in France. The lover in a  French poem called “Le Roman De La Rose” dreams of finding a garden with a bed of roses. In English it was first used  in the poem “The Passionate Shepherd to His Love” written by Christopher Marlowe in 1599.
