Convenient and walkable to town and restaurants. Room was very small and floor was squeaky. Besides having private bathroom, felt somewhat like a hostel. Clean, but very basic and no frills. Friendly staff.
The room was tiny but cute & cozy. It had most everything thing you need but the really amazing aspect was the restaurant which served an extremely delicious dinner.
Bravo to the chef(s). Just as nice were the staff especially Ugo & his partner Anna Maria , so friendly , welcoming and attentive! Special thanks to Ugo for an interesting conversation. The breakfast repast was equally delicious. Thank you for a brief but memorable stay!
The room was very clean and the beds were comfortable. Everything was perfectly adequate and the hotel was in a great spot near most of what the town has to offer. I would stay here again :)
Rooms are small, but the community kitchen was nice and it was located near local restaurants. The views around this area of the mountains and waterfalls is stunning!!
Right next to the water. The town is quiet but very beautiful. Their buildings may look old on the outside but they’re definitely clean and well-maintained inside. Their restaurant serves very good food.
The room was compact, cosy and clean. It had a proper double bed, not 2 singles pushed up together, there was a eating area where residents could eat their own food, a lounge area with comfortable seats and a fantastic breakfast that was served in the nearby hotel.
The room is sufficient for laying your head down but is much too tiny without enough room to open luggage. It is clean and has a cute communal kitchen but should be advertised as a rooming house or hostel in my opinion.

Nice stay
Tiny room, so small we could not move around. Fresh and tidy kitchen at the bottom floor. Nice lounge area on level 2. Smart and efficient check in option
The hotel is in an old beautiful building, but very clean and newly renovated on the inside! The view out the window is breathtaking. Super close to the local restaurant and grocery store :)
Quite cozy rooms next to the beautiful lake. We were confused in the Checkin process as it is at a separate hotel but the hotel is quite near like next building so all in all it was a good stay. We also saw northern lights from the place.
