    the lights were very dim, especially in the bathroom so I could not really see well

    ícele restored original house, the manager was very friendly and responsive. I liked that there was a kitchen at our disposal. pretty warm considering it is an original mountain house.

    Lovely historic home in beautiful architectural reserve

    While I do appreciate being upgraded to a larger room and having a run of the property due to being the only guests on site, I'm quite disappointed the room's mattresses appeared worn, uneven, heavily used/old and sleep quality was not good at all and the house smell - the burnt, musty wood permeates the entire house - was overwhelming. However, I believe the flue (chimney) getting a good cleaning would solve the issue. The back porch/yard requires cleaning for maximum comfort, having to step on rotting fruit alongside the side/rear of the house to get to the car or having leaves/dust all over backyard seating may be quaint, but it would have made for a more comfortable stay not to do so. I'd love to give it a much higher rating, but these issues weighed heavily on the stay

    Beautiful historic home with all the necessary amenities in an amazing architectural reserve. Quiet area, on-site and off-site parking. Friendly, helpful staff. The drive there from either direction was stunning. Nearby ethno-centers, untouched forests and hill-side views are a bonus along the route to this remote area. Area spa town, historic woodworking town and scenic church with half hour.

    The house is excellent, tastefully decorated in Renaissance period style. The location is superb - quiet; yet, close to everything. There is a full kitchen, dish washer and clothes washer, a wonderful yard with seats for many guests. One of the rooms has a private balcony (Chardaka).

    The extra bed we asked was very small. Its an iron bed with springs and small mattress you can put on top. I managed to sleep,but a bigger person would not be able to sleep there. Only negative i could say, the rest of the stay was great and exceeded expectations. Great stay.

    Wonderfull house and interior. Very calm and great garden to relax with family. The kitchen was very complete, good bathrooms. We had the room with balcony, the balcony was awesome... all round great value and stay!

    Nothing really.

    Everything was perfect. Our stay at Stefanina Guest House was lovely. The house is located in the center of the village. All you need for a short or long stay is available. The rooms are clean and decorated with style. The garden is beautiful, peaceful, and equipped with a pizza oven and BBQ. There is even a water fountain in the garden. Everything was just perfect!

    The location set on google maps is wrong. It appears in the center of the village, but in fact is far away, up on a hill. If the weather is good and your car is not so low, you can go all the way and park in the yard. We arrived after a soundly rain and the road was a little torrent. Fortunately, it is all solid rocks, not grass or dirt, so we could walk up easily, only wetting our feet a bit. Anyway, entrance by cars in the village is strictly controlled. Only residents and over night guests are allowed and their cars must be parked in limited areas or in the court of the house, not on street. Visitors left their cars outside the village. There is another minus, related to the work program of the restaurants. Being such a remote village, or because of other reasons, they are not open full time. We arrived Sunday in the afternoon and by the evening many of them closed and told us they are not open Monday morning. Practically, Monday morning was only one coffee shop open at 8.30. One or two restaurants opened after 10.30.

    Everything was perfect. A little dusty, but with a cute retro style. Location is in a remote area, far from center and noise. Every detail in decoration is carefully chosen: from fine, handmade curtains to old furniture amazingly restored, from nice little decoration objects to kitchen tools and traditional carpets and blankets, etc, etc The house has 4 bedrooms and a big shared living room with open kitchen and a terrace. The courtyard is green, full of flowers, trees and again many decorations. Our room had a big balcony, more like a private terrace, furbished with sofa, coffee table, chairs and even an old wood cradle. Bathrooms are small but well designed and keeping the same retro style. They do not offer breakfast but it can be taken down in the center at a restaurant or can be prepared by yourself in the kitchen, which is well equipped.

    unmaintained house. poorly insulated and you could hear absolutely everything, including the noises from the neighboring bathroom; the garbage from the kitchen was not evacuated. dirt collected in the entire kitchen area. bathroom with mold, non-functional fan in the bathroom and questionable cleaning. no rules for families with children

    the beautiful garden with a view of the hill; quiet and peace. a house that was once beautifully built
