"Pros: The place is a hidden-away paradise. Behind the house is an orchard and being September we were welcomed with a large basked of fruits from their garden. There is a generous pavillion-style area with a kitchen the host proudly showed us, all for our perusal. The fireplace is impressive and reminded us of a Greco-Roman temple. The room was adequate in size, the bath very clean and efficient, the shower area about 15cm below floor level and the shower curtain reaching all the way down, so there was no spilling of water unto the rest of the bath, not like others we have experienced. But most amazing were the hosts: rarely had we such a warm welcome! Although they only spoke Armenian and Russian, the communication came from the heart, we understood each other from the start. Later their daughter came from work and she was fluent in 5 languages, including English, Italian and German. Having studied in Germany she preferred the latter. She took care to help us find our next hostel in Yerevan, which turned out to be in a hard to find location, besides recommending important museums there. Her dad took me to a local car-wash, very necessary as we had to return the rental-car the next day. And all that with a natural grace and generosity." ~Udo
