Teresita

The staff was super nice and the breakfast was good. The room is very basic. We were told that only 4 rooms have AC. Our room did not have AC. It was hot and had mosquitoes bothering us all night. If you opened the window, more mosquitoes would come in since they have no screens. They had a small table fan in the room but we started sneezing after turning it on. We got very little sleep and checked out after one night.

This property is not actually in Franz Joseph but FJ is close by. It's lovely but a little sterile for my taste, very well cared for and nicely furnished. I wish we had had more time to enjoy the outside grounds. There's seating and lawns all around the property.

Our room was gorgeous with incredible views, lovely toiletries, a really comfy bed and was cleaned and replenished daily. The fire made it really cosy in the evening and having a laundry was fab. Francesca was a super star. Breakfast was good and plentiful. Would strongly recommend.

Room was clean and nice. The only nit picky things are the toiletries and shower head. The bath gel was foaming bath wash and the shampoo was conditioning shampoo that wasnt very conditioning. A seperate hair conditioner would've been nice. The shower head was an aerating type. There's plenty of water pressure so the water is like being spayed with a hight pressure water hose.

Room is spacious and new. The only problem is that with large windows on two sides, it almost like a fish bowl with no privacy. breakfast is great but only for 1 hour.

Short drive from town. Nice continental breakfast spread. The place is over-priced. It felt like a motel. The ‘luxury’ rooms have no views. The website photos make the place look attractive. But they don’t tell you that only some of the rooms have that view.

Reception is only open part time, WiFi wasn’t good, tv remotes didn’t work and since reception wasn’t open we couldn’t get these issues addressed. Aside from that, really great stay - clean, comfortable, friendly staff. Would recommend!
