The staff is very friendly and Andy knows everything worth to be known about the area! As my luggage was delayed everyone helped me f.e. called the airport for bits of information. The hotel offers wifi but there is no signal for mobile phones. The guests have to use the landline of the hotel. The surrounding is breathtaking and the birds seem to sing the whole day long.
