O hotel tem boa estrutura e potencial de ser um lugar de ótimo descanso junto à natureza. Mas o day use tumultua o ambiente. O espaço é suficiente para os hóspedes apenas.

Achamos o lugar bastante agradável e com ótima estrutura. Funcionários muito educados e prestativos. Café da manhã muito bom. Apenas 2 observações: as camas de solteiro são pequenas e os pratos no restaurantes com preço elevado, apesar de muito bem preparados.
