The homestay is pretty average, it's a clean room that's literally in the middle of the village. The owner was very kind, offered to pick me up and drop me off at the bus stop - I declined and opted to explore my way up and own. That said, this seems like a rather common practice after reading over 10 reviews and see other owners do the same for their customers. The homestay doesn't have a full time kitchen. There are other homestays that are better appointed, better views at just $10 more. If I go back, I'd go for those. Nothing negative about the place, I just think there are better options in the village.
