10/10 Excellent
"Fantastic experience! The staff was amazing and packed us convenient breakfast boxes on two early mornings, which was super helpful while traveling with our toddler. The room was wonderful, and the balcony offered a brilliant mix of nature and energy—gorgeous lake, mountain, and sunrise views paired with a lively street scene below. Perfect place to relax with a morning coffee"

"We would definitely stay at Pinewood again. Our only issue was that we didn't have anywhere to hang our wedding attire. Luckily I had my own hangers so I hung them on the bunk bars. However my other companions didn't. Loved the shower and the beds were so comfortable and warm. The staff were so helpful and happy. Cool place."
