The place is truly wonderful and Herme is a fantastic host. The ONLY reason I gave it less than 5 stars is because the internet is unusable to the point where it wouldn't even load my gmail account and there's virtually no reception either so if staying connected while you're at the place is important to you then that will be a hindrance but if you're going to be out constantly or are looking for a detox from the internet/a local writer's retreat then this is the place for you. It was a big deal for me because I had to work from home and I couldn't, but that's very personal to my situation. If that's not the case for you then I highly recommend it.
