Our experience was mostly positive, however our entire stay was pretty tarnished by a series of unfortunate events on New Year's Eve. One of my travel companions accidentally locked the cottage door using the handle which the electronic key pad could not unlock. This is undeniably our mistake, however when I tried to reach Ben using the phone number he had provided us, email, and text message after this happened (around 5-6pm) he was not reachable. When he finally returned my messages (around 4am) we had already spent 150$ on a difficult to secure hotel room out of fear of sleeping outside in 28 degree weather. We later found out that Ben was traveling in Central America. It would have been much better if we had been given an alternative LOCAL point of contact for emergencies like this. Additionally, the maid arrived a day early informing us that we were supposed to check out and commenting on the state of the cottage (messy with our luggage and clothes after a week of travel). This was not really a problem after the confusion was cleared up, but still a little disconcerting.
Other than that, the cottage is lovely and just as described, and the no hassle check in using the keypad is pretty cool.
