The only thing I would change is that they don’t clean your room unless it’s asked and the shower door wouldn’t close so every time single time you showered, the bathroom would flood

Lovely!
Beautiful small hotel in a wonderful area. The rooms have a lovely balcony with beautiful views of the valley. It's so nice to sleep with the balcony doors completely open and listen to nature. Service was very on point and friendly. Restaurant is very good. Definitely recommend!

Beautiful but needs a new chef
This hotel is so beautiful and unique I love it so much. Unfortunately the food was absolutely dreadful and giggle over priced. It was if their chef wasn’t in. Even breakfast had issues with rancid butter. It was so disappointing. The other issue is their online menu prices are significantly less than what the pricing is when you arrive.
