    The location is amazingly beautiful and quiet. The food very tasty (serbian kitchen). The room is big.

    Very small bathroom, with no place for shower.

    Comfortable room, nice staff, very delicious food. Breakfast included. Parking available.Suitable for horse enjoyers. Horse riding options. Pets are welcome with no extra payment.

    Windows in our room were a bit small, so there was no view.

    The staff was more than nice (very good English speakers). We arrived after check-in hours and they waited for us (including the people from the kitchen). The food was very good and the room quite big and clean.

    Nice hotel part of a Ranch, outside of the city, but you reach it it less than 5 minutes by car. There is a small trail to do around there that takes you through the forest to a monastery with cows and goats outside, and then to some waterfalls, very nice. The hotel has a nice rural vibe with horses outside, and even a poney that hanged around the breakfast terrasse. We had dinner as well, restaurant was good and the service too, our waitress was super friendly. Room's equipment rather basic but sufficient for a one night stop over, and good value for money. Good breakfast served at the table, consists of an egg with vegetables, bread, ham, cheese and jam. Overall very nice place if you like a relax and rural experience. You can park right at the hotel.

    Basic equipment in the room. Not a separate shower in the bathroom. Restaurant a bit pricy.

    The location is great, very close to Etropole Monastery and right next to equestrian base Great views and nature around you Staff is hit and miss, but I would still rate it as a plus Breakfast is good

    Bit of a rundown Restaurant is very overpriced (double the rate compared to anything else in Etropole) Wi-Fi was not working, despite several attempts to restart it

    We are a family with 2 kids coming back from Greece and needed a one night stay to rest. We were completely surprised by this amazing place. We particularly liked : -very nice staff at restaurant -extremely good food, they grow their own vegetables and meat is sourced locally from a farm nearby. We had dinner there upon arrival. Came pretty fast and they also had an amazing homemade lemonade with elderberry! -the owner of the horses nearby was very kind and we could see&feed the horses. We only had 20 Leva left cash, but he was so kind to take our 2 kids on poney rides for it. Make sure to have more Leva in cash if you want this :) -the scenery is magnificent -the breakfast was more than enough, again delicious and served outside at our request near the kids playground, all with a smile -We asked for an extra cot and it was ready to be used in the room when we arrived at about 17 pm -we were able to borrow reading books for bedtime, for free -the rooms were very clean and tidy and big

    -The room may need a few adjustments here and there, but for a one night stay and the price paid it was all we needed -some windows at normal size would have been nice (they had very high windows)
