I absolutely loved my stay at this resort! The atmosphere was cozy and intimate, which made my experience truly special. The breathtaking views along with the fantastic staff made my vacation memorable.

While the hotel has a charming character with an inviting atmosphere, I found it could use significant renovations to enhance the experience. The staff was helpful and friendly, and the restaurant offered good food options. However, the lack of coffee facilities in the room and limited electrical outlets made my stay less convenient, along with some maintenance issues. Overall, it's a decent place for a low-key getaway, but don't expect luxury.

I really wanted to love this hotel because the views were breathtaking, but unfortunately, my experience was overshadowed by several issues. The rooms, while they had potential, were not clean and felt musty. The service left a lot to be desired, especially from the bar and kitchen staff. I was disappointed with the dining options and the facilities did not meet my expectations. Overall, I wouldn't recommend staying here if you're looking for a relaxing getaway.
