"Dirty and lying place, DO NOT STAY HERE"

1.0

Nothing at all

This is a primitive camping, not a traditional accommodation at all. This means no facilities, dirty, disorganized etc. They claim there is "free breakfast", that is a lie. No one is serving you any breakfast at all. All they have for you a some year-old cereal, with no milk to come with it, I guess you have to eat disgusting cereal with tap water. If you are hungry abd don't want those weird-looking cereal, there are some lousy bread, but no jam to come with it. Luckily I found some potatoes lying around in the kitchen abd decided to cook them myself, but I was scolded by the staff "don't touch the potatoes, that is not for you! ", I asked "free breakfast? ", she pointed to the ugly and weird-looking disgusting cereal again, that is for the breakfast. We paid $60 for this place, and that is the attitude we got from them. Stay away from this place, trust me. If someone else wrote about this disgusting place, I would never come here. You have been warned.

"Cozy and Community-Focused Stay Near Orpen Gate"

8.0

We stayed at a fantastic accommodation near the Orpen Gate. They do a lot for the community, and despite my height, I slept comfortably. They really make the most of the small space available.

There weren't really any negatives
