  : Very peaceful location in the Polish/Check hills, surrounded by nice forest, possible to feel a bit detached from civilization, but still having meal served at the ground floor with mountainy forest view. Kind of 'old school' skiing hotel (hostel).
  : No credit card service, no English spoken. Shared wc/showers would benefit from a refresh, although rather clean and makes its function. No up to date overall comfort, but it's relative I guess :)

Fair

  : Great location with a magnificent view of hills & valleys.
  : Old & uncomfortable beds, mattresses, and pillows. Only ONE socket in the room. Simple but overpriced breakfast if you are fast enough to catch the meals (after 45 minutes almost everything gone & not refilled), with coffee for an extra charge.

  : There is a nice restaurant, rustical design.
  : When I made the reservation I got a message that in the winter time we can only get with a car to a certain point and then either we can walk or order transport. Without any mention about the price. Also no mention in the message that you cannot pay with a card. 2 days before arrival I received a phonecall that there is no snow and we can get there by car. It turned out though, that the road was so icy, and it's slightly uphill, that the car didn't manage. I called the hostel and got assured we will be picked up. We did after a short while (although I had to drive backwards all the way down again to a parking space, couln't turn the car). But we were so happy to finally get to our destination. Where we found out that a) we cannot pay with a card b) that transport will cost us 1500 kc (about 50 euro - it takes about 8 minutes, from the parking, from where we were it would have been 5 min). Had I known I would never take a room in a shelter, with a shared bathroom and no facilities at all, because it turned out to cost all together 140 euro... Without breakfast, for 3 kids and 2 adults the price for the breakfast was additional 60 euro. So... no, not so happy about the stay. Ps. We did pay with the card in the end, because there was no other solution, they have card terminal but they want you to pay only for the food and drink, not for the stay. And for the food it has to be over 200 kc, so for example you cannot order 2 beers, and pay with a card, because it will be less than 200. It's absurd.

  : It is a mountaintop shelter so the silence is almost ominous ;)

Disappointing

  : Friendly
  : Bathroom, waited for 10 minutes to get any warm water and it was good I hardly have any hair left to wash. Dont expect to take a comfortable shower. Bedroom was bad, yellow stains on sheets, rat poison on cabinet, 1 electric outlet, 1 TL light as the only way of lighting the room. Just No not worth it.
