suite was awesome and super clean!

great suite great help hot tub

the suite i booked was better than i expected! ellen from the reception was such a great help. she also helped with leaving our baggage at reception as my flight was later in the evening. i was able to use the shower to freshen up before my flight. the hot tub was great!

the receptionist was impolite when i checked in, he told me how to check in like i was an offender! it is located 900m from the bus station, not 750m as they mention! it's a bit far from the center by walk because the road is steep, small and muddy.

Dining

I noticed the hotel offered breakfast. The selection included fresh pastries, a variety of fruits, and yogurt. there were also options like cereal and toast. The dining area was clean and well-kept.

tiny shower long walk

the room was pretty basic. it felt kinda cheap. the shower was tiny with a gross shower curtain. it made the whole bathroom wet after every shower. also, the walk to town reminded me of forever, a long walk uphill and not fun after the first time.
