The hotel is nestled deep in the forest, providing a unique, tranquil escape surrounded by nature. The setting is enchanting, allowing for a magical experience with wildlife, but the overall facility needs significant improvements. The lack of basic cleanliness and attention to detail left us disappointed, and the dining options did not meet expectations for quality or variety.
