beautiful and comfortable
WOW is a word to describe the stay . super comfortable room with all required amenities. remember it is someone's home . a great landlady . but the icing on the cake is the views . you will pay doublr/treble the price in other hotel and still not get the same vista... it's stunning . one downside ( not for me) thefe are steep hills and lots of steps and stairs .
