Beautiful experience

This stay in the Guest House Maya was one of the most beautiful experiences I have had so far. The staff is very kind, warm and attentive, I was able to chat with many residents, each one nicer than the next. All the informations you need is provided at the check-in and if you have a question don't hesitate to ask. During my next visit I will return to the same place. Thank you for everything

Staff was very kind. I came in around midnight and they made sure someone kept an eye out for me juat in case I got lost. Excellent dinner recommendations and they made the reservation for me. Very cozy. The stairs are a bit steep for anyone who has accessability issues

이번이 2번째 방문. 그저 손님으로만 보지 않고 먼저오셔서 물어봐주시고, 챙겨주시고, 물어보면 친절한 답변, 정확한 가이드 안내 등 너무 마음 편안하게 보내다 갑니다. 다른 어떤 말이 딱히 떠오르진 않지만, 감사하고 사랑합니다.

建物は古いが、綺麗に直してあり、清潔に保たれていた。一人旅が多く、アットホームで楽しく、それでいて静かであった。 ただ、急階段で楽しいが注意が必要。 交通のアクセスも良いし、古くからの商店街も非常に良かった。
