Read morePensiunea agroturistica Raluca is located in an idyllic countryside landscape. Although just a short distance from the main road, on a hillside, it seems miles away from the daily noise. Alex, our host, welcomed us promptly (he kindly offered us palinca, too. Palinca is the local firewater). Free parking, free wi-fi. Wonderful yard & terrace with amazing views. Fast check-in & check-out. ||Our twin room with bathroom was quiet, spotless clean, with beautiful rustic design. It had balcony access and amazing mountain/courtyard views. Comfy beds. Spotless clean bathroom with expected amenities. Excellent traditional breakfast promptly prepared for us at the precise time we requested (very early in the morning). Beautiful dinning room. All the food is fresh and locally-grown (eggs from free-roaming chickens, locally produced cheeses and milk, garden fresh vegetables, traditional home-made spreads, preserves, local honey, herbal tea, etc.). Very tasty, too! ||Close to the main attractions - within 15-mile radius (the Village Museum of Maramures, the Wooden Church of Deseşti & Budesti - UNESCO World Heritage Sites, Bârsana Monastery, the Merry Cemetery, etc.). Absolutely wonderful place, highly...

Getting there requires a bit of driving skill since you will be going up at around 30%,so fasten your seat belt and drive safe. Besides that a 9 out of 10 if I were very critic about it. would recommend it to everyone...
