Reviews and Ratings
Overall, I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms are basic but well-maintained, especially those with stunning views of the valley. The staff was very friendly and helpful, but I felt like the service could be more organized. The location is pretty nice, just a short walk from town, although there’s a new hotel construction that might spoil some of the views. The dining experience had its ups and downs, but the lack of artificial flavors was a big plus for me.
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which offered clean and comfortable family rooms equipped with great amenities. The location was beautiful, nestled in nature but required a bit of uphill walking to return to the town. While the dining options were excellent and showcased stunning views, the service lacked a bit of motivation. Overall, it's a good value for money, but there's room for improvement.
