The pool was cloudy and did not look fit for swimming. I would not get in that water. The bed sheets were not clean, there was dirt and even strands of hair. I ended up leaving and going and staying somewhere else. I would not go back there personally.

El lugar es cómodo, pero no es para todo tipo de personas. Es más para retiros espirituales y en general que cree en cosas poco convencionales.

Un oasis mágico en medio de la ciudad

Nos hospedamos en este hotel peculiar y quedamos gratamente sorprendidos. Aunque los baños son compartidos y se encuentran fuera de la habitación, para nosotros esto no fue un inconveniente. Sin embargo, creemos que un poco más de cuidado y limpieza en el área de regaderas haría la experiencia aún mejor. Lo que realmente hace especial a este lugar es su ambiente. A pesar de estar en la ciudad, te sientes completamente rodeado de naturaleza, lo que crea una atmósfera mágica y relajante. Además, ofrecen un servicio externo de masajes en la parte superior de la recepción. Tomé el masaje relajante de 60 minutos y fue simplemente increíble; una experiencia totalmente recomendable. Nuestra habitación no era muy grande, pero tenía todo lo necesario para una estancia cómoda. Estuvimos en la planta baja y nos encantó; fue una ubicación excelente dentro del hotel. Sin duda, es un lugar único para desconectarse sin salir de la ciudad. ¡Volveríamos sin pensarlo dos veces!
Todos los días tienen servicio de sauna gratuito, pregunta en recepción.
