Everything that Ivy did for the stay was well thought out and presented. The place was clean, cute and private. Wood was cut, outdoor kitchen was available and clean, mini lights everywhere at night for going in and out and it was our own little sanctuary. The hosts did not bother us unless we asked or if we ran into them out front. But this is not for the person who wants to be pampered and get out of bed in the morning and walk a few steps to the bathroom. The bathroom is in the house, about 50 feet on a straw walkway, down some steps and into a back room. It is clean and has a great shower. It is what it is - a mud hut with a bed and a wood burning stove. We loved it. The neighborhood is pretty good, except that it is in the industrial part of town - but that didn't bother us one bit. There are also some great restaurants for breakfast and dinner within walking distance. We would highly recommend the mud hut for anyone who is earthy, creativity and not in any need of modern amenities.
