Guest House Like

2.0 star property
9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (2)
"The host is very nice and includes coffee and tea with the stay. The accommodation is decent and not too far from the city center. It is however up a mountain with no public transportation available. Which means you have to hike or take a taxi. It would have been nice to know that before arriving after 8 or 9pm at night with luggage. If there are other guests, the walls and floors are pretty thin, so prepare for a group experience."
