We had a wonderful stay! The host was incredibly kind and helpful. He arranged tuktuks for our longer rides at a good price, which made everything so much easier. We enjoyed breakfast and had also dinner at a very good price. One morning, when we left for a hike very early, he even prepared a breakfast to go, which was such a thoughtful gesture. His whole family is truly lovely and welcoming.

China

The service is extremely enthusiastic, offering to help with luggage proactively. The homestay owner's child greeted me with a handcrafted Chinese postcard, which was truly unbelievable. The welcome was done with great care and I could feel it. The next morning, I woke up early and the homestay couple also woke up early to prepare a delicious breakfast for me, which moved me deeply. Of course, everything in the room was great, and it was wonderful to enjoy the quietness at night. Located on a hillside, not far from the lake and city center, within walking distance for a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle.Until we meet again.

Moran and his family were very lovely. It was just like being at home, with shared kitchen and dining facilities. Comfy bed and nice hot shower. They even went out to get us our takeaway dinner and served it up to us.

Due to our tight schedule, we could only book one night, but I wish we could have stayed longer. The place is simply amazing — the hosts are very friendly, helpful, and always available when you need them. The food is perfect, and there’s a nice variety of beverages. The room is clean and tidy, and the view… we just couldn’t get enough of it! It might be a bit far from a big city, but it’s absolutely worth staying here.
