Peaceful getaway with valley views

I booked this place last minute during my motorcycle trip. The quiet location impressed me. The valley views were fine. The owner seemed very friendly..
The hotel informed me on the day of arrival that the hot tub was extra and insisted on cash payment. Access to the hot tub was limited.
