Very much ideal place for friends and singles, the place is hidden in trees, it's the same street as police station hence that kinda avoids any tensions, host helped us to rent a bike and Ella was perfect with it. - Santosh Mar 16 – 17, 2025 • Mountain View Balcony Room - Mount Crest.

Die Unterkunft ist zwar etwas abgelegen, doch die Aussicht ist deshalb super. Die Gastgeber waren sehr zuvorkommend und haben uns am ersten Tag mit einem Tee überrascht. Wir haben die Zeit sehr genossen und würden jederzeit wiederkommen. - Chiara Mar 1 – 3, 2025 • Balcony Suite (Triple Room) - Mount Crest

Alloggio con comode amache su cui ripassarsi. leggermente spostato dal caos delle vie centrali ma comunque molto comodo se ci si sposta a piedi. Host gentilissimo - Marco Feb 20 – 21, 2025 • Balcony Suite (Triple Room) - Mount Crest

Overall - Nadun is great host and their place is phenomenal value. Close to the city, yet private and beautiful surrounding. Nadun went above and beyond to help us - gave us ability to check-in earlier, helped to get a rental scooter which was delivered to us within the city and helped with nuance near our apartment. The place is just as described and shown on pictures - no problem with that, bit basic but vibey and lovely. - Deniss Feb 18 – 20, 2025 • Balcony Suite (Triple Room) - Mount Crest
