The room was clean and spacious. Despite the late arrival time, there was no problem checking in. There is a restaurant and a store at the bottom of the building. The restaurant's coffee was tasty. As for toiletries, there were two soaps in the room, so ok. Bed very large and comfortable. The hostel is located just off the main road, which is a plus when you are on the road.

    From a nature perspective, absolutely stunning.

    From a nature perspective, absolutely stunning. This area contains the southern part of the Transfagarasan mountain pass and there is a lot to see and do here. The scenery is spectacular - it also takes a long time to drive, so make sure that you have enough time. Try and avoid night time driving for animals (bears and dogs), but also for the fact that the road is extremely winding and tiring to drive. You will certainly see bears - the southern part of the road (Highway #7C) is a bear conservation area along Lake Vidraru.

    Came with friends for a couple of days. We got to the hotel at night! We were met personally by the owner, he helped to park our cars. Then they prepared sandwiches for us, although the kitchen was no longer working! Clean room, delicious food, friendly staff! It felt like we were at home! Definitely recommend to everyone who visits Transfagarashan!

    Amazing place in the forest on the Transfagarasan highway (7c). You realize where you are when you see the 3 dogs that they have to make bears stay away from the hotel!!!! The room was very big, very good matress also. A very polite girl was on the hotel's cafe/bar on the main road

    The service was great. Very welcoming and friendly. I would highly recommend. I have stayed at hundreds of hotels but the staff were more helpful and welcoming than anywhere previously. We arrived late and they still cooked us dinner and service with a smile.
