Marcus booked our accommodation in the middle of the village. It was very atmospheric and just lovely being very closed to the monastery. Quiet, and nicely haunted. Energy was very soft and almost as if very subtly vibrating.
When we got to the village, as usual, we parked our little Fiat in the car park near the grave yard. Walked into the square, owners of our accommodation had a shop there, so popped into to get the key. He and his wife had a jewelly shop there and David (husband) kindly took us to his apartment. He seemed to be really nice bloke, his wife looked a bit grumpy. Later Marcus told me reason why she might've been grumpy. Apparently, when Marcus found them on line, It had a cheap deal on, but when he looked into David's site, it was even cheaper. So he cancelled it through the site and re-booked through David's site directly in order to get even cheaper deals. Later they realised they made a mistake on pricing on their site. However David kindly processed Marcus's order how he booked.
That was our theory. But she just might be grumpy anyway or stressed on something else. Anyway, the apartment was the next to the little Tibetan shop in the village. It was very well done up. Here's some photos!

Very pretty and lots of nic-knacks in the house, was that why David was counting every single cutleries when we checked out? He told us to contact him before we checked out in order to return our deposit. Our flight back was early, so David turned up about 6:30am to check inventory. He counted and checked all nik-knacks, made sure toilet was working, or nothing taken.
Then he asked us a question "where are two pigeons?" There were two pigeon ornaments made with iron, sitting on the top of electric box. After we were playing with them(there's a story to this, tell you later), we placed them on the top of cabinet. Obviously David didn't see them at that point. They were literally in front of him! When he saw them, he carefully placed back on the top of the electric box. And he gave us our deposit back.
I thought he was very paranoid, did he really think we were taking those ornaments???? Anyway, we were probably more paranoid than him till then. Because we constantly had heating on, it was very warm, cosy and comfy inside the house. Never felt one second it was chilly and cold. Thought how much extra we had to pay for that....
He didn't check how much electric we used.
Then made us wonder. He was more worried about little ornaments than how much more/extras his customer spent on electric.
We would defo come back there again. No extra on heating.
Thanks David! and his wife.
