Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a unique experience with spacious rooms only tidied up once every two days in a charming dining room lit by candles. The staff is incredibly kind and spontaneous, providing a service that reflects sincerity and an ashram-like atmosphere. The location, though secluded and not easy to find at night, offers a restorative ambience away from daily pressures and features a cozy lounge area with a real fire glowing. However, the limited dining options could be improved with more variety beyond cream cakes.
