Der Ort ist einfach bezaubernd und das Hotal liegt geradezu perfekt.
Pros:

Das Frühstück war sehr gut.

Cons:

Das Zimmer war sehr klein und vor dem Zimmer war das Kühlhaus für die Küche und die Kühlanlage hat etwas gedröhnt, das war etwas schade da so schöne Natur rundum war, die nicht mehr zu hören war.
