    hot tub with a view
    steep stairs

    The hot tub overlooking the stunning landscape was an absolute highlight, making our evenings incredibly relaxing after a long day of exploring the area.

    However, the stairs were quite steep and could be a safety concern, especially for families with small children.

    The hot tub overlooking the mountains was a fantastic perk. The steep stairs were quite challenging, especially at night.

    creative shower
    hot tub
    steep staircase

    The shower design impressed with its creativity, adding a unique flair to the bathroom experience. The hot tub provided a decent way to unwind after a day of exploration, even though the weather might not always cooperate.

    Navigating the narrow, steep staircase with heavy bags made for a vigorous workout. not ideal for anyone with mobility issues. The sleeping arrangements felt cramped for four, and a lack of entertainment options, like board games, put a damper on rainy days. The bathroom heater was out of order, making it less than comfortable during my visit, and the absence of fresh linens over four nights was a genuine inconvenience.

    well-equipped kitchen
    beautiful garden view
    steep stairs

    comfortable stay in a lovely setting

    The cozy two-bedroom chalet provided ample space, with a well-equipped kitchen that made meal preparation enjoyable. The hot tub was a highlight, offering relaxing views of the surrounding mountains during the evenings. Additionally, having a large bathroom was a pleasant surprise, providing a feeling of luxury after long hikes, complemented by the beautiful garden view right outside.

    However, the steep stairs could pose a safety concern for those with mobility issues.

    breathtaking views
    well-equipped kitchen
    steep stairs
    poor maintenance
    limited outdoor furniture

    The cozy chalet offered breathtaking views and a peaceful setting, ideal for relaxing. Enjoying breakfast in the fresh air was a real treat, and having access to a well-equipped kitchen made cooking effortless. After a long day of hiking, the sauna provided a perfect way to unwind.
