This would be a great hikers paradise and budget friendly place to stay during the summer, spring, or fall. I stayed during the winter and the heat did not work correctly - I was shivering for hours and unable to get warm. The host did not provide instructions for using the heater. Also, the host stated there would be access to water and the water was not hooked up when I arrived. I could not was my face, brush my teeth, or make a cup of tea as expected. Overall this unit is unsafe during the winter months.
