The environment must be good, but the room facilities are indeed too old. It is worthwhile to take photos, videos and check in. The breakfast is rich.

Worth a try, a real palace hotel, a display of stone and wood carving art, with elaborate and luxurious furnishings. The garden is a French regular pattern, carefully maintained. The area of ​​the suite is much larger than the marked area. The butler service is in place. The dinner food is sufficient, the only drawback is that the cod is salty, and the shrimp rice is also salty, and I didn't finish the two dishes

The environment is nice and antique. It just needs some renovation. The facilities are too old and the five-star rating is unworthy of it. However, the historical value is far better than the hotel itself. I really like hotels converted from ancient buildings. They are very historical.

The environment is beautiful. The only thing is that the hotel is a historical building. There is no fiber optic network in the mountains, no wifi in the room, and no air conditioning. It will be very hot in the summer.
