The staff were nice and maintained clear communication throughout my stay. However, I found the dining options a bit lacking, and the location could pose some challenges if you're looking to explore nearby attractions without a car.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel, which is perfectly situated for hiking and exploring the surrounding areas. The rooms were spacious and pretty modern, but I did find some aspects that could use improvement. The dining experience really stood out with a mouth-watering Hungarian beef stew, but I wish there were more options available. Overall, it was a good value for money, despite a few minor downsides.
