Amazing host and even better views. The room was large and comfortable with a good shower. Balcony was good but be aware it attaches to the main guest house so in the summer I don't imagine it's private. - Booking.com

The scenery overlooking the distance is extremely beautiful. The room is convenient because it has a microwave oven.
