the location is definitely unique - it would be nice to know the history of that building and why it is there. It is very clean and there is everything a guest needs except a laundry facility.

Room and facility is clean and surrounding is quiet. I don’t find anything creepy like other people said. This is just a previous long term care home.

Peaceful place to stay away from the city

The guesthouse and its location were very good. Due to its remote location, the best way to commute is by taking a rental car. It was a bit strange that Google maps doesn't have the route map for the last 1.5km to the guesthouse. However, there was a signboard to the guesthouse which helped. The stay was pleasant and the kitchen & bathrooms were in very good condition. The only downside was that our grocery items were stolen from the common refrigerator. So, please be careful and store the non-perishable goods in the room instead of the refrigerator.
