"Lovely little inn in the forest. Reception and bar area had a great, hip vibe. Room was clean, but a little outdated. Shower fine, but could use a shelf for toiletries. Dinner and breakfast(included) was good. Outdoor hot tub was lovely and big. Thought overall value was very good. Would return and hopefully see reindeer next time :)"
