What a value for the little money spent! There is cable and satellite TV, although most programs are in Spanish. It has a hot shower which is an exception rather than the rule in a normal home here. Although it is cooler in the mountains, it was cozy sleeping in our multi-blanketed beds. We enjoyed dinner at this property and ate the local trout, as it is the freshest fish available in these pristine mountain locations. Very yummy! The cold, clear mountain water is delicious.... no chemicals here! We filled all our water bottles to take with us. We did not eat breakfast at the restaurant as we had a full kitchen. However, we did make use of the provided tea and coffee, which was locally produced and was so delicious that we purchased several bags to take home with us.

Great for families or large parties, vacation homes are privately owned accommodations, available for long or short-term rental. These homes are furnished and equipped with kitchen facilities, though breakfast might be offered as an add-on. These properties have their own independent front door, which makes them different than apartments.

    I really enjoyed the stay. Directly after opening the door I felt welcomed by the calm atmosphere. The room was very clean and very nice. If you want to have a calm stay, this is the perfect spot for you! It is located in the city centre, you can just walk and reach everything. There are two big supermarkets just next door. Thank you!

    Location was generally good, however, next time I'll stay closer to the city center. Place was very clean and generally clean. Good places to eat nearby. (Note: I have seen it listed as both a hostel and hotel.
