Excellent location. Our unit had very good views of all three volcanoes and we were lucky with the weather. The property is a little bit dated but was worth the price. We would consider returning in the future.

Hi Suyoun, we spoke face to face when you checked in and I gave you advice regarding the hikes in the area. You wrote down my personal mobile so you could text or call me if you needed assistance.Our staff access the wifi daily so they can view which rooms they need to service. Sadly I never heard from you, for if I had, I would have been more than happy to assist you with accessing the wifi. Thank you for staying with us.

The property is quite old. We were at 2nd floor with the mountain view, which was good. Parking was at rear of buliding, a bit inconvenient. The building is just adjacent to the highway, it was noisy and many big trucks handover drivers.

This is an older very traditional property that is currently undergoing renovations. Although it's very much in need of an update, the manager & staff do a fantastic job keeping it clean, warm & comfortable. The check-in procedure is via looking for your name on a list on the door, with the key being in your room. That's absolutely fine especially if arriving late, but our personal preference is to see a person at check-in. We had a wonderful stay & Mary the manager couldn't have been more delightful 😊
