This site was breathtaking with its Italian lights on the lush greenery and colorful jungle artwork on the outside walls. The room was huge and had all the appliances I could need, But my favorite spot was the balcony with rocking chairs that overlooked the backyard. The sound of the rushing river, combined with my rocking and drinking wine calmed me down.

Due to the loss of Internet while driving to the site, lack of signage of streets and routes, and incorrect driving directions. Eventually, I found my way near a church and parked outside of it - with no gas. People who came to my aid called a taxi and helped me unload the car.
The taxi came, my stuff was unloaded and I met Paola, the site manager.
The next morning when I asked for her help in retrieving my car and getting gas for it, she called a friend who drove the two of us to the gas station, filled two gallons of gas into containers, drove us to the car site, modified a plastic bottle to make a funnel, and filled the tank.
Talk about going above and beyond! They certainly did!
So, what could have been an overwhelmingly awful experience with being lost and running out of gas, was ameliorated readily by the beauty of La Terrazza and the caring, concerned staff.
