"The place is great, water flows very well and you can get warm for your shower real quick. The hotel manager Leu was helpful and addressed any concerns I had. Again Sipson Tours was great with helping me navigate my accommodation. There is breakfast included and my best part is the fruit options which always part of the meal. The downside is that there is really no variety in the breakfast meal. However, overall I enjoyed my stay. "
