Great property which is very clean and has good facilities. One thing to note is that check in closes quite early and there is no elevator.

Staff was very friendly and tried to be helpful but the language barrier was problematic until speaking with management. We missed our first night and initial conversations made it appear they no longer held our reservation for the 2nd night. Eventually we were told to check back 4 hours later but spent the day wondering if we had accommodations. In the end, all worked out. It was a great place and we'd all happily stay again in the future.

Amenities includes a nice kitchen with essentials including stove, microwave, utensils, pots and pans. Good location. Can be a bit noisy in early morning and then there is the public address system- ha! Played eidelweiss every morning.
