Were with friends met there NG. We knew that we were overpaying for a room (100 bucks for a 2nd room for a downtrodden village - the price is rather big, even in NG). We were prepared for the fact that the Carpathian "service" is far from what we saw last year in Slovakia.
Just returned from this hotel. I found a fellow traveler on an Internet through the "Search for a fellow traveler" forum. I was very pleased with this, my fellow traveler was excellent.
