We spent a crazy night in June this year at this hotel. We were one of the first ones to check in that day, and the rooms of the hotel were well laid out, with a nice balcony with some chairs, offering a great view of the little town and the lofty peaks all around. But then the evening and the night turned crazy with hoards of people flocking in, and blocking the way in and out.
