local ingredients helpful owner area knowledge late check-in lack of lift
i found the breakfast amazing!!! it was cooked to order with local ingredients. the hosts were very helpful and shared their love of the area with me.
i was slightly disappointed with the check-in time. check-in started at 4 pm, which i thought was a little late. i also found that there was no lift, so i had to carry my luggage up some stairs.

low water pressure flat pillows
The breakfast was acceptable. It was made to order the night before.
I was somewhat disappointed with the shower in the room. the water pressure was quite low. also, the pillows were rather flat. I would have appreciated some more supportive options. it impacted my sleep quality a bit
