I felt like I was in a movie! The mountain view suites with private plunge pools were absolutely stunning and well worth the climb up the stairs. The rooms are beautifully furnished, air-conditioned, and the large bathroom with an outdoor soaking tub was a real luxury. The outdoor shower and tub were a delightful touch, making the 80-stair hike totally worth it.
