This was such a cute place to stay. The room was outdated but very spacious. The balcony had a great view of the mountains and you could hear the river flowing below. It was very peaceful. We enjoyed the pool, mostly to ourselves.

Upon entering the room, I immediately noticed a musty smell. The bedding and furniture looked worn and unclean, and the walls were cracked and peeling. The property is clearly in need of a complete renovation. Unfortunately, the photos on the website bear little resemblance to the actual condition of the accommodations and are extremely misleading.
