"Superbe séjour inattendu, belle surprise"

9.0

La maison est incroyable, elle est belle, charmante, chaleureuse et atypique. Couper du monde, elle est au calme, parfait pour une retraite. Mariette est adorable, généreuse et apprécie la rencontre avec l’autre ! Merci Mariette ❤️

L’accessibilité : les chemins nous sont parus dangereux un peu mais Mariette nous a beaucoup aidé 🫶🏽 L’eau chaude est rare. Mais, quand on sait pourquoi, on comprends et cela apporte encore plus de saveur au séjour atypique ! Une vraie belle expérience

Sehr liebevoll gestaltetes Hostel. Die Besitzerin ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit bei Schwierigkeiten. Sehr gut ausgestattete Gemeinschaftsküche und schön gestaltete Bäder. Die Wegbeschreibung war hilfreich und präzise. In toller Umgebung gelegen.

Mariette war sehr nett und hilfsbereit.

Die Straße bis zur Unterkunft ist etwas holprig und rutschig

"Good"

6.0

The surroundings are really green and to weaken up there was amazing, birds and sunny morning. The staff is amazingly kind and willing to help and give you good advice about the attractions around.The mosquito net is great and it is really well equipped for cooking.

The room i got, it had insects and the indoors lighting was poor. So it makes you feel you are not in a clean place. Although it was clean enough, the whole setup does not help to get rid of the idea if you arrive late at night.

"Rustikal aber liebevoll, muss man sich drauf einlassen"

4.0

Die Unterkunft ist sehr liebevoll eingerichtet, aber extrem rustikal. Ob das Wasser aus dem Hahn Trinkwasser ist, müssen wir leider bezweifeln, da wir beide anschließend Magen Darm Probleme hatten. Die Anfahrt ist mit einem normalen Auto fast nicht zu empfehlen. Erschwerend kommt hinzu, dass es vor unserer Ankunft geregnet hatte und alles extrem schlammig war, ca. 1 km .Die Vermieterin ist äußerst nett. Das Bad ist sehr gewöhnungsbedürftig, da bis auf die Toilette alle Abflüsse am Rande des Raumes offen abgeleitet werden. Die Unterkunft war allerdings trotzdem sauber, wir hatten das große Apartment gemietet (circa 40 m²). Warmwasser wird über den Holzofen bereitet.

Die Zufahrt ist genau genommen ein offroad Erlebnis. Die Unterkunft selber ist afrikanisch rustikal, kleines Getier ist aufgrund der Gegebenheiten nicht aus der Unterkunft heraus zuhalten.

"Un angolo di paradiso nel canyon"

10.0

Mariette, l’host, molto disponibile e gentile. Alloggio fantastico, immerso nel verde e circondato da un villaggio locale. Ottima posizione per le principali attività della zona. Possibilità di fare grigliate e cucina super attrezzata.
