Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Room was clean and bed was comfortable. The property had a beautiful mountain view. My reasons for the lower rating on staff is that management is remote. Communication was excellent; prompt response to texts and clear instructions. But there are no “staff” on the premises. I would stay here again and recommend to others.
