Arguably my favorite stay in the region! Ilgar is a wealth of knowledge and a very good man, helpful with tips and info and quick to facilitate anything you might want. The private room was spacious and the bed was comfortable with a great comforter to ward off the chilly nights. I’d definitely stay here again if I ever return!

It didn’t feel like a hostel at all. It a pleasure to be hosted by such a lovely family. It felt more like a family stay but without feeling of being intruded upon or intruding. I felt very welcomed. The location is very quiet and peaceful.
