I thoroughly enjoyed my stay with the Matus family. Nightly practice concerts by Jose (16) on piano (Imagine was my favorite in the varied styling) and Maria (20) playing guitar and singing added to the charm of the homestay. Both are students.

The easy walk to the village without being in the center of all the people/party noise was a relief. There is traffic noise in the mornings and early evenings. There is also the sound of the frogs down by the river after a good rain! As noted by others, Arturo fixed great breakfasts and went out of his way to assist in my achievement of my extensive bucket list.

This was a great experience for me as a solo woman traveler. it might also be a great family stay as extra beds are available.
