Guest Reviews
Location
Despite being a bit remote and requiring a bit of a climb to get to the city center, the peaceful surroundings and the setting amidst nature are highly praised. The 10 to 25-minute walk into town is scenic and offers a chance to absorb the beautiful, serene environment.

However, the calmness, the stunning scenery and the overall excellent location more than compensate for these minor inconveniences.
