"The location was incredible and the staff were great. Overall it was a good experience. The only negative was the beds weren’t super comfortable and the walls seemed super thin. There were some friends arguing in the adjoining room and it was very easy to hear. Overall people were quiet, but if you’re a light sleeper this would be a problem."

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel has incredible views and overall everything is very well maintained and beautiful. However, I was disappointed that there was no air conditioning, even considering it’s a mountain location. In addition, the fact that smoking was allowed left a tobacco smell in the room, which was quite uncomfortable. In short, the setting is wonderful, but these details definitely affected the comfort of the stay. I hope this feedback is taken as constructive, because the place has a lot of potential."
