“One of the nicest and cutest small hotels I’ve ever been to. From the moment you step in, you breathe peace and happiness. The garden is refreshing and gorgeous, the region and mountains are pure with insane views, and there’s the constant sound of the river. The rooms are cozy and beyond comfortable, and the people who work there are all hospitable and very nice. The owner is always around, quite personal and kind.”

“Always love the ambiance and garden. Grateful for the soothing sound of the stream flowing right under the outside seating area. A pleasure to both be immersed in beauty and enjoy a great menu in an outdoor patio feel.”

“We were only there for lunch. The food and service was top notch. You really must see the gardens there. This is what I imagine the Garden of Eden looked like.”

“The front desk lady was very nice, helpful and respectful. The same cannot be said of the restaurant. Not one person comes to the table unless called. After waiting for 15 minutes we had a waiter saunter up and take our order. An hour and 7 minutes later we get our dinner. The fish was exceptionally fresh and tasty. We then ordered dessert. Nothing complicated, just ice cream and flan. It took them 35 minutes to bring the dessert. Service is not in their dictionary.”
