Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The room had a stunning mountain view and was a perfect choice for our group. The staff was incredibly helpful and even recommended some off-the-beaten-path places to explore. The location, although a bit far from town, provided a peaceful retreat away from the hustle and bustle. Unfortunately, the dining options were limited, but overall, it was a great value for money.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were spotless and spacious, equipped with all the modern amenities you'd expect from a 5-star hotel. However, the dining options were limited, which was a bit disappointing. The service was exceptional, with the staff being very friendly and even offering offbeat tour suggestions. The location, while a bit far from town, provided a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere.
The hotel room felt more like a hospital rather than a cozy space, lacking any charm or scenic views, and with some security concerns. However, it was spacious, clean, and accommodated multiple beds. The service was exceptional, with warm and attentive staff exceeding our expectations. While the location offered a tranquil setting away from the city noise, it was a bit inconvenient with limited dining options nearby. The dining experience was average, with repetitive food choices, but the facilities were decent overall.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and well-equipped, offering amenities comparable to those in 5-star hotels. However, my room was on the ground floor, smaller, lacked decorations, and didn't provide a scenic view. The bathroom window had no curtain, and some windows were not secure.
I had a fantastic stay at the hotel with its spectacular panoramic windows offering a breathtaking view. The room was clean and well-maintained, although lacking a garbage bin, which required using our own solution. The service was truly EXTRA EXTRA helpful and the staff was very friendly and polite.
