Aras Rural

The cabins were lovely, cozy and comfortable, and properly equipped for the cold. The owners and staff paid close attention to everything. Highly recommend.

It was an awful stay. I've never seen a town with so many flies, and the windows had no screens. The place wasn't clean enough either, and the photos speak for themselves. There was no air conditioning. Between the heat and the flies, sleeping was impossible. I asked reception for a fan because the room was unbearable, but they didn't have one. The shower barely had any water, and with the heat I ended up in the bathtub wearing flip-flops. We also asked on Friday if we could book a table for Saturday night. The guy said he'd check, but never got back to us. When we asked again the next day, he said they only had one cook and things were bad. I said it was fine if there wasn't a table, we understood. Then he said, "Okay, I'll make room for both of you at 9:15 pm." We arrived at 8:45 and sat down to wait with a beer and water. It was tap water, since they don't have bottled water. There was nobody else on the terrace, but by 9:30 they still hadn't even put a tablecloth on our table. We went down to the village to look for a bar with space, but couldn't find one, so we had to go back to our room without dinner. Then, at 12:30 am, music was blaring from the bar and people in other rooms were slamming their doors as they came in. Horrible. It felt like we were just expected to deal with it. We're not coming back, and I hope nobody else has the same experience.

A lovely, peaceful spot for enjoying nature, going hiking, and seeing the charming villages nearby. Highly recommended if you love being outdoors.

The owner was a disaster. We had a dog with us and stood on the concrete for a while because there were so many caterpillars hanging from the pine trees. There was nobody at his hotel, but we still had to leave. Don't go!
