Arrived without booking, however hotel's rep helped to book room. There are several types of room. Choose standard since need it only for overnight stay, but had nice mountain view.
Pros and cons:

Newly innovated room
Comfy beds with clean blankets and bed sheets
Provided all required stuff- sets of towels, shower coat, disposable slippers, hygienical kit
Quite place - could not heard neighbors despite several vehicles on the parking lot; far away from motor roads
Really helpful staff and owner
Nice restaurant with variety of dishes
Location - nice apple trees and many routes for trekking
-
Nothing

Clean, quiet hotel...very friendly and nice owner...bathrobe in the room. Wi-Fi available in some areas...

This hotel is located in a very quiet village, and the rooms are large and clean. We stayed here for three nights in May, and the girl who helped us check in upgraded our room, which I think was probably the best room there. The view from the window was stunning, and the window opened very wide – truly wonderful!

There's complimentary afternoon tea with delicious cookies. Breakfast and dinner are also provided, as long as you mention it in advance. Dinner usually offers two or three options, some Western-style and some Chinese-style, but all are delicious. Breakfast includes porridge, bread, and tea – simple and tasty.

Since we don't speak Russian, there were some misunderstandings. For example, we wanted an electric kettle to boil water ourselves, but the staff said they didn't have one, even though they did.

Finally, there's one thing we really feel bad about: although the service was excellent, we didn't tip because we weren't sure when to tip. Especially the girl who brought us tea and dinner to our room several times. We felt very bad about it.

Ok
