The view is truly impressive— we were even able to see a rainbow from the window, which was a lovely surprise. However, the Wi-Fi connection was quite slow during our stay, which may be inconvenient for guests who need stable internet access. In addition, I would strongly recommend booking dinner in advance or bringing sufficient food supplies. When we arrived at 1:30, the restaurant was already fully booked, and we were only able to have some snacks instead of a proper meal. Unfortunately, the children had to wait until the next morning to have a full breakfast. Overall, it is a beautiful place with great scenery, but guests should plan ahead regarding meals and internet needs. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7391002a-c424-4546-bb11-828cfc2f0112-1763523359162.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ed36324c-7733-4e35-ac0e-89b8da40fc64-1763523351111.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### zhongrong Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025
