I found everyone very friendly, available, and welcoming. The house, like the bedroom where i stayed, was beautiful and peaceful. I gave 4 stars to the food section because i only ate with the family once, but im sure that the food they prepare is very good. It was a wonderful expirience, i would recommend someone to try this out.
Thank you for your kind review,it was a pleasure to have you stay.
