I recently stayed at this resort which is wonderfully positioned in the mountains, offering stunning views. The rooms are spacious and remarkably clean, making for a comfortable stay. However, the dining options could use some improvement, especially when it comes to breakfast variety. It's also unfortunate that the surrounding area was not as well-kept as I expected. Overall, it’s a great place for a quiet getaway, but there are definitely areas that could enhance the experience.
