Great location. Quiet. Very clean nicely sized rooms. Easy parking. It is on a short gravel road so wouldn’t recommend for motorcycles but I would definitely stay again.

Very nice room for one or two people. Owner Maya very courteous, helpful, responds fast. A new clean room in a quiet area. This was a trip on my bucket list and I was leary about where to stay. Maya made it easier for me to answer all of my inquiries. I will definitely stay there again.
