Rose is very friendly and warm welcoming, I have got there early and it was not a problem for early check in (I got there around 2pm). There is a hose outside the house to wash the mud off the bike and the host have kindly allow me to store my bike at their garage during my stay. Love the differently fruit tea collection and butterfly decoration outside the house.
