Beautiful property. Pool was pretty. Small hotel. Only problem was how LOUD it was! My room was #4 and it shared a wall with the restaurant. The small hallway is open to the reception area. You can hear every time someone comes in or out of the hotel.

We stayed in mid-October for one night and had a decent stay. However, there was no air conditioning and no screen on the windows, so if you leave the windows open to cool the room, bugs will get inside. There were many stinkbugs inside already when we arrived. Otherwise, the room and facilities were nice. Breakfast was plentiful and fresh.

Perfect for Plitvice lakes

Everything was great from reception [Monique] to room [v clean with tea/coffee] to dinner [Jasmine]. Staff mostly efficient. Breakfast was ok but too much is left open for flies to land!! Food should be covered and people should respect that. I only ate cereal and yogurt!

Good but not great. Just a standard hotel vibe. Spacious rooms though and a nice bathroom. Good for our 1 night stay. The highlight was where we ate, Fast Food BBQ about a 5 minute drive from hotel. Get the meat platter!!!!! The hotel food and restaurant seemed overpriced so we ate out.
