Would definitely stay here again.
Pros:

Honestly a fantastic experience. The rooms were clean, tons of towels, hot water. Breakfast was great. Snacks were made up if you couldn't make breakfast because of an activity. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Reasonably priced (and fast!) laundry service.

Cons:

It's a bit of a walk from town, but hey...extra steps!

Pros:

Die Unterkunft lässt nichts zu wünschen übrig. Die Zimmer sind sehr geräumig und die Betten sehr bequem. Alle Mitarbeiter und Mitarbeiterinnen sind immer freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Zimmer werden täglich gereinigt und die gesamte Anlage ist sehr sauber. Es gibt ein gutes Frühstück und wenn man mal früh zu einer Tour aufbricht, bekommt man stattdessen einen Snack zum Mitnehmen. Kaffee und Tee stehen den ganzen Tag über kostenlos zur Verfügung. Für Mietwagen gibt es kostenlose Parkplätze. Ich habe mich sehr willkommen und wohl gefühlt.
