Che peccato solo una notte!
Tutto perfetto, pulito, confortevole. Gentilissimo ed efficente il signor Armado è un ospite perfetto e pieno di sorprese, ci ha preparato una colazione degna di un hotel a 5 stelle. Se possibile ci farebbe picere ritornare.

Armando è molto disponibile e generoso. La casa presenta un'ampia terrazza dove si può ammirare il paesaggio, prendere il sole o degustare l'ottimo sorbetto di Armando.
