Sadly, but it was terrible.
First of all, it is important for me to emphasize that due to work constraints, we had to postpone the date of making the decision to go on vacation to the last minute and the aforementioned B&B is one of the few that remained free when it comes to the Passover holiday. When we arrived at the B&B, we got an idea why.
First - the noise oh the noise! During the day it is perfectly quiet, at night, on the other hand, the stay is unbearable, there are dogs from nearby houses that bark all night non-stop, but really.
We read in a previous opinion about the problem and even asked the owner of the B&B and she said that there might be some barking because "the pigs are driving the dogs crazy" but it's rare, so it's not.
The second night we slept with earplugs that we had specially bought.
The cabin is in a somewhat neglected backyard, the grass and fall leaves give the impression that they have never been cleaned, a simple broom would have done the job at least for the sake of it, but that wasn't done either.
A respectable amount of mosquitoes and flies at the entrance to the cabin as a result of the lack of treatment of the organic waste.
The nice sized balcony cannot be opened at certain hours due to the presence of many mosquitoes, and when possible, it is unfortunate that they did not manage to trim the few branches that hide the view.
Looking down gives a tired and ruined fountain.
To watch TV, you need to activate 4 remotes, to lower the volume you have to get out of bed to direct the remote to the receiver.
The bed is not inviting, a standard double bed and quite outdated.
The bathroom is not renovated as you can see in the pictures, not pleasant.
The cabin is quite clean and in the refrigerator we had wonderful cheeses, a jug of milk and dried fruits, all kinds of spices and the kitchenette is equipped and comfortable for cooking a small meal.
The B&B owner's response
Kobi, I was sorry to hear that the visit to my guesthouse was not pleasant for you. I have read your words a number of times and in my opinion the main problem is in coordinating expectations. Like many guesthouses in Matta, my cabins are also located deep in the woods and nature is an integral part of the experience - with its sounds, smells, colors. In our reality, fallen leaves are part of the scenery, and even dogs may occasionally bark to startle a stray wild boar. Happily, many people enjoy hosting in this style - as the dozens of warm recommendations from surfers on the site will testify. I wish you that you will be able to find a lodge that matches your preferences and taste, and I promise to continue to do my best to maintain the quality and special appearance of the cabins for the sake of my guests.
