It was a larger hotel than I expected. I usually prefer smaller, family establishments, but I learned that this was a family-owned hotel, and that’s why it was homey and friendly. The breakfast was wonderful, with a wide array of foods for carnivores and vegetarians—even a juicer with carrots, apples and ginger. The room was very nice with a balcony looking over the river. The pools were terrific, indoors and out. I even had a. Nice massage, which was ok and not too pricey. The hotel is very well-located in the town and early morning walks along the river are a must. The lifts to the upper mountains were not yet functioning in May, so I was disappointed that I could not hike in the upper, spectacular areas. Advice: wait till June 1.
