Reviews and Ratings
I had some mixed feelings about my stay. The view from the hotel was quite nice as it's located on a hill, and the rooms were spacious. However, the overall cleanliness was an issue, particularly with the water, which came out brown. The breakfast options were lacking and not fresh. Based on my experience, I can't recommend this place as it feels like it’s stuck in a not-so-great state.
The hotel has a striking view and spacious rooms, but unfortunately my experience was overshadowed by significant cleanliness issues and poor service. While the family running it seemed nice, the distance from the city and the lack of helpfulness made for a frustrating stay. I can't say it’s a good value for money, especially with the water quality being unacceptable.
I had mixed feelings about this hotel. On one hand, the view is stunning, and the rooms are spacious. On the other hand, I encountered major issues like brown water coming from the faucet and a terrible smell in the shower. The location is quite far from the city, and the service left a lot to be desired, especially during breakfast. Overall, it’s cheap but definitely not worth the stay.
The hotel has a stunning view from the hill, and the rooms are quite spacious. However, the overall standard is disappointing, with poor service and unclean facilities. The breakfast options leave a lot to be desired, and I found the location to be inconvenient despite the nice surroundings.
The hotel has some great points, like large rooms and a nice view, but the overall experience was quite poor due to serious issues with cleanliness and service. The location on the hill provides a beautiful outlook, but it's far from the city and the facilities feel more like they’re under construction. If you're looking for value for money, this place misses the mark.
