5.0

Good location and friendly staff.

Room could have been more comfortable. The TV was very high which caused neck strain. No hooks in the bathroom. Chair very basic. Decor a bit tired etc. Unfortunately 3 lads in the room next to mine came back drunk after midnight and made a lot of noise shouting, swearing and laughing etc. I called the lady in charge who appeared quickly and successfully calmed them down. But, not what you need before a long final day hike as the walls are paper thin.

No breakfast provided but great kitchen to make anything you wanted.

No way to control all the noice but you heard every little creak and sound from the floor above, it was bad till everyone went to sleep.

זו אכסניה במיקום עם נוף מדהים

החדר שהיינו בו היה עם מיטות יחיד דו קומתיים המקלחת מצריכה לחיצות על הכפתור של המים כל כמה שניות זה לא מאפשר זרימת מים רציפה
