Being set in a forested area makes the place very peaceful, perfect for unwinding and connecting with nature, but the inn only serves breakfast—there’s no snack bar and the remote location means no other services, which is a real drawback. The breakfast is simple with limited variety, and the worst part was the flies; fruit and juice sat out uncovered, so we kept swatting them while eating, which was awful. Bread was left out, butter came in its original pack, and a large open trash bin near the kitchen attracted even more flies. Staff wore no uniforms, raising serious hygiene concerns both in the dining area and during food preparation. The rustic décor uses all‑wood furniture that looks worn and unpadded, making any seat uncomfortable after a few minutes. There are no on‑site leisure options like pool tables, foosball, or board games—your only choices are the pool, a hard bench, or your room, none of which offer comfort. The five‑bed chalet only has three chairs, leaving nowhere for the other guests to sit, and the living‑room sofa is terribly uncomfortable. Overall, the physical structure is decent, but without basic comfort and hygiene it won’t attract many visitors.

The natural setting, pool, and overall tranquility offer a great view. The walk to the lodge could use improvement, but otherwise everything is fine.

The views are pretty great, but the location isn't ideal.

Everything was great, except for the limited breakfast options.
