Upon arriving at the hotel, the owner recommended places to eat and even helped us call, but most were closed. After considering various options in the area, she said, "Well, if you'd like, I can give you some ham." Taking her offer as very kind, we thanked her profusely but told her not to bother us, that we were sure to find something. (We understood that it was a personal gesture because we couldn't find a place to eat.) We set off again, but everything was closed, so we returned to the inn with only two bottles of water (there wasn't any in the room). Once inside, we sat down at the living room table to eat some bread, two kiwis, and two candied almonds, which was all we had from the trip. To avoid making a mess, we took two plates that were there next to the table and settled down to eat our fruit in peace. Suddenly, the owner appeared, looking very unfriendly, distressed, hand on her chest, angry, and commented that she was "even ashamed" that we were sitting there with our fruit when SHE SERVES DINNER AT HER HOTEL (which we were completely unaware of; *********** stated there was no restaurant, and there wasn't a soul around to suggest we could have dinner). "HOW DO YOU THINK I MAKE A LIVING? And you even took some old plates that aren't meant for eating!" (plates that were stacked next to the table). It was very upsetting for us, mother and daughter, sitting there peacefully, listening to a scolding unlike anything we'd ever experienced. We barely knew how to respond, apologizing for taking those plates that were there and for deciding to sit at the table; we thought it might be for common use since it was in the lounge. She offered absolutely no communication. We've never experienced anything like it.
