My stay at Naksel was mostly lovely, with amazing views and a tranquil setting. but a negative experience at checkout really soured my impression. While the rooms were spacious and well-appointed with a heated bathroom, the service interaction I had felt unprofessional. Overall, I loved the accommodations and surroundings, but that final experience tarnished what should have been a perfect trip.
