Perfect hospitality from a charming family with excellent English. Armando is very clear in all the ground-rules which makes life simple. He is an excellent manager (and workmate, as required). He is a realist.
Business often takes Armando to Las Palmas so it is easy to get a lift for a day in town. If necessary full instructions for buses back.
