Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a mix of positives like clean and well-maintained rooms but falls short with a smoky smell and insect presence. The location is stunning and beautifully quiet, yet the dining experience can be chaotic during peak times. The service is a mix of friendly and cooperative staff, although some areas may lack welcoming vibes.
