Dear Kismet Inn, dear Shadi,
Aiming of no expectation, guided only by my plotting/planning husband's few hints and instructions and a GPS, the surprise - true surprise - of my destination was discovering a bit of magic, to an enchanting, peaceful place, so very close to us. In Kismet Inn I have found health, rest, relaxation, absolute luxury and an emphasis on true beauty and simply absolute pleasures. In you, I found a kindness spirit, a wonderful heart, a talented manor, and a true friend. I look forward to seeing you again soon.
Cheers & blessings - Molly Roth... (proudly!) Maine.

Many thanks for the simple luxury of your home, which easily felt as if it were our own. The beauty here is so refreshing, everything magnificent whether it is the hospitality or the personality that make this place so original, either way the artful generosity you show is unforgetable.
Stay well until we meet again!
Gratefully, Rebecca Trainer & Taylor Davis

What a wonderful time break here in Bath. After all the rain and commotion of Bowdoin's weekend, it was fabulous to have this evening haven to return to. Looking forward to returning often and with Anny, who knew she had discovered something special. Thanks to you, Shadi.

'Shadi, Thank you for a wonderful night - good conversation, good food and Matt loved his first cafe au lait. We had a long and stressful trip up from Boston, but once here we were able to relax and enjoy our stay. We both admire and respect your commitment to a simple, organic, local lifestyle. Thanks so much!

'Shadi - Thank you so much for a lovely stay. My husband planned our trip here asa surprise for my 30th birthday. He could not have picked a nicer spot for the celebration. I think our 4 month old daughter had the best time of all - "swimming" in our beautiful tub and basking in the affectionate arms of our hostess.
With gratitude & best wishes -

'Shadi, although I am a writer, I find it difficult to find the words to express how we feel about our short stay at your beautiful inn. But words like serene, wholistic, wholesome, peaceful, authentic and lovely come to mind. We hope you continue to move forward with faith in your endeavors. With peace.'

'I am currently resident of Bath, but had to get out of my house due to an emergency situation. The Kismet Inn was a wonderful world of tranquility and restored my soul as well as my body. I enjoyed the most wonderful, luxurious shower I ever had in my 64 years! Your daughter, Sepi, was a gracious hostess. I wish her much success in her continued college studies and I look forward to your "Afternoon Teas in 2008"!
