    The liveliness and great energy of the place. Good place to meet people who love the ride of the slopes. Smell of food in the kitchen, just makes the place feel so homely. Love the lovely host and her beautiful smile.

    Generally it was worth mention that this place is located in a ski resort. You can access it only by electric car / electric taxi, shuttle bus (cheapest option) or cable. If you want you can also walk but it is a quite hike. It is a mountain...
