a gem of hospitality

The house showcased beautifully decorated interiors with interesting historical features! the dining room felt special with a delicious cooked breakfast served near a cozy fireplace. I really loved that grey high-back chair i spotted there.
the shower's water flow was quite slow. it made rinsing off shower gel a bit of a drawn-out process for me.

Wonderful Stay and Really good Hospitality

warm greetingbeautiful decorexcellent selectionamazing evening
Dolores warmly greeted our hiking group upon our late Sunday arrival. The guesthouse displayed beautiful and clean décor. A great selection of alcoholic drinks was available at the bar, and we enjoyed the terrace. Dolores and Danny accommodated our dinner request given our long day. The table settings were beautifully arranged and the evening was amazing.
The shower's water flow felt very slow, so rinsing shower gel took a long time. It needs maintenance.
