It was very quiet.
Pros:

The view and the calm, the breakfast was very good and the ceviche too.

Cons:

Maybe they should put water bottles or a coffee and tea station at the room since the rooms are a little far away from the reception area.

Pros:

It was a beautiful and calm place. Breakfast was amazing!

Cons:

The street to go up to the hotel was not in the best condition, specially if it rained it became very slippery and dangerous to go up with the car we had.

Beautiful and cozy rooms with gorgeous views
Pros:

Beautiful, spacious, peaceful, cozy, and very clean rooms in a nature-centric location. The views of the mountains, sunrise and sunset are magnificent.

Cons:

Moths inside the room due to open spacing and cracks from windows. Thanks to other reviews I was mentally prepared for this so thanks to everyone who mentioned it.
