Summary of reviews

Guests say
The hotel is praised for its stunning location and beautiful views, with many guests mentioning the experience of staying in a charming setting. However, the service and cleanliness have been points of concern, with complaints about inadequate staffing and issues with hygiene, particularly in the pool area. While some guests appreciated the breakfast offerings, others noted issues with specific amenities like the spa and the bathrooms. Overall, the facility’s location and environment seem to be its strongest attributes, despite the need for improvement in service and maintenance.
