Very pretty setting and just needing to update their property. The beds were very old/bad and the air smells of sulphur gas mostly at night as there are natural thermal areas around.

This is a wannabe 5 star hotel. Rooms large grounds nice. Food choices unacceptably limited. If you want coffee you need to go to the gas station across the street. Ditto for lunch. No USB ports in room.
