It is an uphill slope getting to the place. However, it is quite a lovely overnight stay. We did have some problems on using the washing machine, because you can actually set it to do wash and dry for 6 hours! I was horrified after coming back from dinner to discover my laundry was not done. I discovered I set it for 6 hours and contacted Tia to rectify the situation. Thankfully, my laundry was done in a timely manner!
