I loved hearing abou the history of the place. I had trouble with the stairs because I recently had a knee replacement. The bathroom ran out of toilet paper and it was difficult to find someone to help replace it. I had not been told what to do if I came back to the hotel after midnight, so fortunately I was with someone who thought to go onto the airbnb website and found a number for the owner in messages. After calling this number we were able to get in, but I felt bad having to bother the owner and for a while I was worried that I wouldn't be able to get into my room. It was just an awkward situation. I loved visiting the teahouse, as well as visiting with the owner. She is a wealth of stories and information.
