It seems many guests booking in here were hikers looking for especially remote hikes on the island. Going by the reviews it does not seem that they were disapointed. The spot is described as high in the mountains and having both great scenery and great hikes starting in the immediate area.
While guests did mention various problems with their rooms, the vast majority felt that they had been cleaned to a very high standard before they checked in.
A couple of guests mentioned that they booked here specifically because it was very near the geographic centre of the island. Though the mountain roads do slow one down, they felt that it was an excellent central base to use when heading out to other spots on the island for daytrips.
Very unusually for a hotel which is in as remote a spot as this one, several guests complained that it was incredibly noisy. It was not external noise, but rather noise from inside the hotel that was blamed. The cleaners in the morning came in for especially harsh criticism in this regard.
While there were a handful of guests who liked the food, the vast majority did not think highly of what that came out of the kitchens. The problems listed were numerous, but the gist of it was that it neither looked nor tasted good. Variety was also said to be lacking, especially at breakfast.
Though they did also receive compliments, several guests reported feeling that the staff treated them as a burden to bear, rather than guests to assist in having a wonderful holiday.
