"太棒了,簡直是超預期體驗!一個人來梧林這邊旅行,感受到了滿滿的温度。掌櫃在入住前一天就提前聯繫了我,還很貼心的給我發了路線指引,生怕我走錯路,到了之後還出來幫我拿行李,入住的時候不厭其煩的跟我講解房間內的各種設施,以及周邊的攻略。
我住的這棟是一棟結合了南洋與閩南風格的番仔樓,晚上的時候特別有氛圍,站在天井下,彷彿真的穿越到了上個世紀的南洋。民宿還有個小酒厝,裏面有很多黑膠唱片和cd,晚上在這喝雞尾酒,完全是靈魂放空的最佳地。阿澤真的是我見過最有天賦的調酒師,拿捏了各種經典,而且人特別好,特別風趣幽默,強烈推薦來這試一下他的酒。主理人温是個憂鬱的藝術家,和他聊的特別投緣,還幫我拍了很多照片,不得不説,温出色的攝影技術和艾海蘭的多個出片小角落簡直是渾然天成的一對。
第二天中午還去了艾海蘭的百年古厝品茗,創始人莫妮卡特別温柔,為我講解了艾海蘭以及梧林的故事,動情至深,感動至極。還很貼心地幫我規劃了行程。對了,裏面還有兩衹特別可愛的小貓咪,特別親人,太喜歡啦!
真心希望像艾海蘭這樣有温度的民宿可以越來越好,以後一定還會再回來的。"
