I stayed for two nights vice the three for which i was scheduled. Price is great but I needed a tank to reach the place and would not have found it had the owner not met me in town. I had a heck of a time finding my way back the second night after dinner and a glass of wine in town. it is dark and remote (about two kilometers up a rutted, dirt road). The price is right but you have to pay in advance for all the nights you book whether you stay or not. There is no breakfast, just a kitchen with a toaster. It was cold and rainy when i was there and the place was freezing with only a space heater. You must have a car. you are a long way from anywhere! Just know what to expect. it is remote but a good night's sleep if you want the quiet! Eleanora has a great website and was very nice but just don't be misled! This truly a cheap place to stay if you like roughing it!

Don't go there unless you enjoy being ripped off. The description offered on various hostel websites is incredibly inaccurate. Forget about breakfast. Restaurant? Huh? You must have a car, preferably a tank, for the ten minute mud slide of a road to the property. The owner has some really sweet animals -- and they are the only beings that concern her. With outside temperatures at about freezing, you would at least expect the stone building to be somewhat heated before your arrival. Not!!! And two cheap space heaters plugged in upon arrival don't do the trick. Just don't go there unless you really feel like roughing it for an exorbitant price.
