The hotel had a very strange room shape, but it was very comfortable and spotless, making for a cozy private stay. The staff were wonderful, especially Natala at the reception desk, providing us with plenty of helpful information about the area. The location was decent, with greenery around and close proximity to attractions. However, the dining experience in the basement was a missed opportunity for enjoying the mountain view.

My stay at the hotel near Durmitor National Park was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were very good, especially considering the value for the price compared to Danish rates. I did find that the edge of my bed was a bit uncomfortable, and the view was not the best, only overlooking the access road through the woods to the National Park.
