O.K., I was driven around by a taxi driver when I first arrived in Dilijan. He first drove me up somewhere on a hillside to some A-frame cabins that were on the grounds of a university of some sort. It was a long walk down the hill to town and the whole place, including the cabins, was deserted and for some reason I just didn't feel right when I set foot in the cabins (Cue the soundbite from PSYCHO - "We have 12 cabins and 12 vacancies")... I later read in the Lonely Planet that these cabins are supposedly haunted!! I didn't stay there, but I got that eerie vibe that told me to sleep elsewhere. The driver then took me down the hill and across the main road to another sort of dorm/guesthouse. I don't know the name, but it was supposed to be for medical students, and unsurprisingly, there was no one staying there... It must have been a holiday period for Armenian students at that particular time of year. The building I was staying in was being worked on though my room was pretty muck satisfactory. There was only hot water at night, but the room was clean and it had a nice big window facing west. I stayed there one night. Strangely enough, and I did not know about the haunted cabins on the hill on the other side of the road, I woke up once or twice that night and was a bit nervous about an eeire presence in that building. I opened the door to my room and looked down the hall (which, as I have said, was a mess because ot the construction going on) and saw a blueish light flickering in the darkness from another room. I walked down the hall to see what it was and when I turned the corner and looked down I saw a gas heater of some sort burning. I thought it was odd because it was the middle of the night and I was the only person in the building (or was I?) and why would the owners waste gas ? Anyways, I went back to my room, shut the door and went back to bed and continued to feel that queer sense of something lurking in the walls.... I left the next morning for Sonahin.
Maybe the place is haunted when it's empty. Maybe not. The owners were really nice, but their English was about as good as my Russian, so we spoke in very general terms. Theme: Pension/GuesthouseDirections: As you approach Dilijan from Sevan, this will be on the right hand side of the road and tucked back a little bit into the hills and you must walk up the driveway to see the building. Look for a sign that shows it's medical facility (housing) of some sort.
