We were looking for a one-night stay before our hike, and this place was great for the value. It’s situated in a beautiful area with amazing views. We arrived late, and the house was quit cold, taking some time to heat it up. While the facilities and cleanliness could be improved, it was worth the money and met our expectations for a one-night...

The chalets are so charming! We stayed for one night only but it’s the perfect place for longer stays. The beds are super comfortable. The kitchenettes have everything you need of you like to cook your own meals.

Located on a mountain, it's a nice starting location for hiking. There are two paths you can walk right away, with more further away. If you're travelling without a car, you can take a shuttle bus from the city for less than 2€ to reach the location.
