Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

We are the first guest:)

Very clean and good room. Comfortable bed:) Hotel staff was nice. If you want to stay in middle of nature it might be good! And it took a little bit time to eat breakfast. If I have a chance to go there I would stay there.
