A small but very decent hotel. Design, kitchen, cleanliness, personal relationships- no complaints. We visited in March, there are few tourists- but this is more a plus than a minus. The kitchen is excellent. The staff are experts in their field. Upon check-in, they were invited to a late dinner at night, they did not take off their bracelets at check-out (they could also have dinner.) We were allowed to assemble a lunch box for ourselves (we were given disposable food containers ). Vacationers are more European (the staff speaks Russian almost tolerably well).
