We had a great stay! This property exceeded our expectations and was very nice. It felt clean and organized and we appreciated the amenities such as the coffee and toiletries. Great proximity to volcano. The welcome packet made finding the location super easy and made us feel comfortable while settling in. Would definitely recommend!
