Such an exceptional place. For a female solo traveler the team made sure i was well taken care off. It was nice or the host to invite the guests to the new year count down party. Beautiul place with great pizza.
Since they use water from the river, water in the bathrooms had a brownish color.

I had a super weekend stay. Staff spoiled me with lovely breakfast and aways super friendly it was so different from most places.
The only small thing I did not like was the bathroom open plan as sharing with a friend did at times feel awkward.
