The proporty is located on a very steep (I repeat: very steep) hill.
Pros:

Friendly staff, great view, clean, good breakfast, nice (but cold) pool, the beds (new matrass?)

Cons:

The proporty is located on a very steep (I repeat: very steep) hill. Tuk-tuk drivers consistenly refuse the trip to the hotel at night. Be prepared to walk at evenings and night. No lightning on the path. Young and old, it is challenging. We underestimated the reviews that mentioned this. For this reason, I wouldn’t come back here.

A peaceful mountaintop escape with amazing views, a lovely rooftop pool, and a hearty breakfast
Pros:

We loved the incredible 360° views from the mountaintop location, which made the whole stay feel peaceful and unique. The rooftop pool was a fantastic bonus, perfect for relaxing while enjoying the scenery. The included breakfast was generous, tasty, and very much appreciated. The host was also very accommodating and helped us arrange a late checkout for a extra fee, which made our departure much easier.

Cons:

The location is beautiful, but the climb up the hill is very steep, and there’s no lighting on the path at night. Walking back from the center after dark can be challenging.

В центре Эллы, но выше всех!
Pros:

У нас был номер с двумя балконами выходящими на разные стороны. На город и на горы. Вид прекрасный. Номер приятный. Уезжать не хотелось.
Да, подъём к отелю действительно крутой, но это плата за хороший вид. В целом это не доставляло неудобств. Иногода пользовались трансфером отеля, иногда пешком, иногда нанимали тук тук.
Рестран хорший с прекрасным видом, меню очень разнообразное и готовили очень хоршо. Однажды пересолили том ям, но бесплатно заменили без лишних вопросов. Персонал очень внимательный и доброжелательный.
Остались тёплые воспоминания. В следющий раз снова тут остановимся.
Спасибо!

Cons:

По вечерам хорошо слышна музыка из близлежащих баров. Но не допоздна. В целом это не испортило впечатлений об отеле, но может кому-то будет полезно знать, что полного уединения и тишины тут не будет. Зато все развлечения города в пешей доступности.
