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.

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 😊

Had everything we needed for a 2 night stay. Good kitchen facilities with elements and lots of utensils including sharp knives. Comfy beds. Wonderful view of the mountains through the window. We had the panoramic room with 2 steep flights of external steps which are rather dangerous and poorly maintained. Would be treacherous in the winter! The outside of the chalets looks poorly maintained and indoors is a bit dated but clean and comfortable.

Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Disappointing stay. We were expecting a fairly basic no frills stay, but the state of the room and the building was really disappointing. Although the bed was comfortable and the views from the property were amazing, there was a big black mouldy patch on the ceiling and the room smelled really damp and mouldy. It wasn’t really easy to leave the windows open to help with this as the bathroom window would only open very very wide and leaving the front window open at night meant traffic noise was too loud. Also there were some very big rusty stains on the outside of the bedroom window and stuff dripping down from somewhere above. Also there was absolutely no sound proofing between rooms and our microwave was quite dirty inside and the kitchen shelves and lamp and surfaces were dusty so the room cannot have been well sanitized between guests. We could hear every footstep taken by the people above, and could hear cupboard doors, cups being put down on the draining board/shelves, the microwave being turned on etc. luckily enough the neighbours were not too noisy in talking/loud tv etc or this would have been a nightmare. The communication was generally very good, but when I asked if a late checkout could be a possibility (as mentioned in the info folder in the room) I didn’t receive any reply.

It was warm and cozy, the beds were comfortable, everything was clean. Some paint work needs to be done on the window sill in the bathroom, there were a few stains on the carpet, the frying pan was buckled and needs replacing, somewhere to put things in the shower would be great. Mary was a wonderfully attentive host. We will definitely be back and will recommend to others. Thankyou!
