The person who said the owners do not speak a word of English must be dreaming. The owners and entire staff were a total delight. The hotel was immaculately kept up but n.b., no drawers for storage anywhere in the room but one of the 2 large closets had some shelves. No wash cloths, and a single cake of soap shuttled between the sink and shower - we didnt request more. The 400 meter hill from town sounds close, but 400 meters is 1/4 mile. By the end of the week we no longer noticed it. On return, i'd stay here again. Oh, and forget the breakfast - fantastically overpriced.
