Inside the Lars home

After the final visit to the restored Lars homestead, the group traveled to the original interior of the home (located 250 miles away from the actual hut) in Matmata and now known as Hotel Sidi Driss. The group had a few words to say about the place in their official diary. "The Sidi Driss is a wonderful place and the owners realize the importance of it for tourism. The troglodyte hotel contains five pits. Three with sleeping quarters, one with dining quarters and the fifth pit is now something of a museum. All the Star Wars set dressing still in place (although painted over more times than anyone would his kitchen back home) and immediately immerses visitors into that galaxy far, far away."
