Away from the bustling city in a quiet setting, cosy and comfortable rooms with everything needed made us feel at home. The hosts were super nice and hospitable. The breakfast included had many varieties, we met and talked to people from different parts of the world.

Stayed here for 1 night in September. The property location is good, and the view is very nice. The building itself is a little dated but charming. The inn provided a hot breakfast which is always appreciated. Staff were super nice and friendly. Would stay here again.

A perfect view from the property
Driving into the property, we were very excited by the external appearance and the incredible view. The staff are nice and welcoming. The room was really disappointing- The bed was comfortable, but the furniture and bathroom were in great need of repair and updating. The way the room was organized was cramped crowded, and difficult to move around. There are few restaurants nearby and they generally closed by seven or 7:30 PM except for the restaurant at the Keltic Lodge which was a 10 to 15 minute drive from the property. It was an adequate stay in a beautiful location.

a disgusting motel. It should be condemned. Filthy room with cobwebs all over. Two useless table lamps in the room and an air conditioner that is uncontrollable and very noisy. We should be refunded!
