experiência maravilhosa!

O lugar é lindo! Já que chegamos, de cara nos sentimos encantados pela natureza ao redor. Fomos muito bem recebidos pela Marciae novamente nos encantamos quando conhecemos as instalações: tudo impecavelmente limpo e de muito bom gosto. Também, o Café da manhã é muito bom (teve entre outras delícias, um bolo de maracujá que eu amei). Um lugar encantador, tudo saiu acima do esperado. Gratidão por nos proporcionar momentos incríveis aí!

Simplesmente perfeita, sem tirar nem por. O quarto que na verdade esta mais para casa extremamente limpa e bem mobiliada, tudo de muito bom gosto. A propriedade lindissima, piscina e vista maravilhosa . Os anfitrioes super simpaticos e receptivos. Com destaque para os doguinhos Zig e Tom. A comida que servem la tambem uma delicia, enfim ja estamos planejando voltar somente eu e minha esposa.

Difícil acesso e outras coisas mais…

Os dois quartos ficam dentro da casa da proprietária, onde ela residiu com seu companheiro e seu cachorro no tempo em que estive lá. E, pela minha experiência, percebi que não oferecem privacidade alguma, por estarem dentro da casa da proprietária. Ouve-se tudo que está sendo falado ao lado, assim como se ouve a todo momento o sobe e desce da escada pro segundo andar da casa pelo cachorro e moradores da casa. Desde o início, me senti uma visita na casa de um estranho. Não há recepção, o check in é feito na sala da casa sentado no sofá. Antes da chegada, recebi uma mensagem da proprietária se eu me incomodaria se o hóspede do quarto ao lado levasse um cachorro. Não me opus e o cachorro não foi, mas achei uma deselegância ser submetido a tal consulta, uma vez que os quartos são juntos. Outros detalhes: no primeiro dia de café da manhã, fui o primeiro a chegar e não pude sentar na mesa que escolhi, sendo que são todas as mesas iguais e têm o mesmo tamanho(a proprietária me pediu pra escolher outra mesa); depois de dois dias, perguntamos se era possível a troca de toalhas, pois o local é muito frio e mesmo com aquecedor de toalhas elas não secam totalmente(acabei levando um sermão da proprietária). Mas, não precisei das toalhas, pois, por opção própria, adiantei o check out em um dia. E, mesmo sem em nenhum momento pedir reembolso, ouvi que ela não poderia fazer nada em relação a essa diária. Mais uma vez não entendi. Enfim, experiência desagradável e anfitriã deselegante.
