"I enjoyed my night in Ella in this place. Great breakfast - fried egg, toast bread, fruits and a cake. They served all day tea and water. Stuff very friendly and I met really nice people there with whom I did hiking in the nearby places. The power was off in the night but the staff organized candles really quickly and it was very cosy:)"
