Charming, secluded, and beautiful. More like a private room than an entire guesthouse due to crossing through a shared side entrance and shared space to reach the room. The main house is where the host's family lives on site, the converted garage that shares the side gate entrance is another AirBnB listing by the same host, and the calligraphy room is a cute shed in the corner neighboring a mini-shed where the restroom is.
There's an open flow to the backyard layout, so it's easy to encounter people or hear them as you go about your day (some curious guests wandered over and one even tried to open my door lol), so be mindful if you're needing to quarantine for any reason. Luckily it doesn't rain often in this region, but because the room shed and the restroom shed are in different buildings, I did get wet on a couple of days when it rained and I had to use the restroom. There's also a deep outdoor sink that's very handy to wash dishes, but it's also in the uncovered area, so you'll need to plan accordingly, especially since dishes should be washed and leftover food put in the fridge right away to avoid ants. If you have sensitive skin, be sure to bring some hydrocortisone since you're close to the outdoors and the mosquito bites can be pretty intense.
The host's parents are the sweetest, and even though I didn't run into them often, I really enjoyed the moments we interacted. They're super kind people who made me feel warm and welcome. You can really sense their artistic spirit from the beautiful calligraphy inside the room and how everything outside is decorated.
