The property is scenic, surrounded by beautiful forest area and a creek. The hot springs and pools make this a nice place to stay. The rooms need alot of maintenance and updating. For example, the bathroom is extremely outdated, bathtub had a crack in it, the bathroom sink was falling apart, and the tile work needed caulking as well as updating. There was black mold everywhere, especially in the bathroom. Not a very clean hotel. Staff was nice in the restaurant.

Beautiful property, with some wonderful hot springs. Be sure to check them out along the river not only the manmade pools. Rooms were nice but ours was a bit dated and loud as we were close to the pools and restraunt. Food in the restraunt wasnt the best but was cheap. Great restraunts a few minutes down the road worth driving too.

Es un hotel viejo, le falta muchisimo mantenimiento y limpieza. El hotel funciona como Day Pass y pasan las zonas comunes muy llenas. A pesar de que pagues hospedaje, encontrar una silla o mesa cerca de la piscina es imposible. Sin embargo, se descansa y el desayuno estuvo muy bueno.

If you want to be in a place where you are totally isolated from the world, then that's fine: There is no physical phone in the rooms, not all rooms have air conditioning (they don't tell you), the cell phone signal does not reach the hotel and the wifi is terribly bad.

Our first room had no hot water, they said it would be fixed and said it was. Still didn't work. No hot water flow from sink, shower had none. Safe couldn't be locked( they had no key). Moved us to another room. Hot water was very very little flow. My sister had another room. Very little hot water flow. Restaurant is very nice, mini golf is fun. 4 pools, several bars. 2 hot tubs. Pools are various temperatures, which was nice. Air conditioner worked fine. The management is proactively upgrading & repairing the property. Can't recommend this proof, mosly because not much to do around the area, and the hot water.
