satisfactory stay at this house

tasty breakfast comfortable bed fine view missing welcome paying guest one night

the breakfast was tasty and well presented. i found the beds comfortable and i slept well. the room was beautiful and the view was fine.

i booked two nights but stayed for one night only. there was no welcome or any other info given on arrival. i seemed like i was an intruder rather than a paying guest.
