Hard to sleep

They seemed like a great family but no AC or hot water, shared bathroom and shower with 6 other rooms. Fruit fell from the tree hitting the metal roof which made it impossible to sleep much. It was not at all a good experience. It was a room with an old bed and a bench and book shelf with a fan but it stayed hot. The boat tour was nice.

Rustique et bien

Hôtel propre, dans la forêt, rustique mais avec du charme comme chez l'habitant. Juste un ventilateur dans la chambre. Adresse très difficile à trouver. Bien pourune étape

Struttura carina e pulita, personale molto gentile e disponibile, rifanno il letto ogni mattina e ti fanno trovare la tua biancheria lavata e piegata direttamente nella tua stanza, se richiedi il servizio lavanderia. Purtroppo però c'è da sistemare qualcosa tipo la doccia fredda ed il fatto che non si dorme bene, letto con qualche molla troppo esposta, e, nonostante avessimo i tappi alle orecchie, si sentivano cani abbaiare spesso durante la notte ma soprattutto rumorosissimi tonfi sul tetto di lamiera causati dai frutti che cadevano!

The residence is pretty much what I was expecting, rustic property in the middle of nowhere. But that's also the beauty of it and I've partly enjoyed it. The owner is very friendly and helpful as well of the staff. I've liked pretty much everything of such semplicity. The place is very quiet and there are plenty of wildlife around (parrots especially). The only issue is with the rooster the owner has. It starts singing uninterruptedly from 4.30am and it makes impossible to sleep from that time.

No privacy, bizarre owner, not recommended at all!

The rooms are placed around the owner's house, so there is no privacy at all. The property is located away from the shops in town and can be very dark at night to walk. The owner's behaviour was completely unacceptable, either he was drunk or intoxicted with something else. He was aggresive and made my stay very uncomfortable. I really regreted staying there.
