Something not right?

New place since January 2020. Hotel, restaurant and hotspring. You have to make a reservation for the hotspring as it is 10 min. across the wide river.

What a beautiful location but dampened by the fact that we were not able to visit the springs. The women working there were lovely initially, and promised us that if it didn’t rain today and overnight, we’d have no issue making it to the spring the next morning from 10am - 1pm ( which is the only reason we booked this hotel). It didn’t rain overnight or the next day, however when we (only one other couple staying at the hotel at the time) were loaded into our van to the springs the next morning, it wasn’t the big off-road 4x4 in the carpark with CHILENKO HOT SPRING plastered all over it or even the huge monster army van located right next to our van (which looked to be the vehicle that should be used to transport patrons to the springs), it was a normal 2WD van, not capable of facing the river crossings in order to access the springs. We made it to a larger crossing, and weren’t able to pass (to no one’s surprise) and were promptly returned to the hotel and told that ‘if’ the water level dropped, perhaps we’d be able to attempt it again. We asked the driver why we weren’t using one of the more capable vehicles, and the driver said he wasn’t permitted to drive them, and one of them was having maintenance done on it. None of the staff approached us afterwards to explain the situation, offer an apology or an explanation as to why we weren’t using the more capable vehicles, nothing. After a lovely evening, it left a real sour taste in our mouths…… to not have any correspondence or communication from the women about their inability to transport us to the springs, which let’s face it, was the only reason we booked this hotel. Very disappointing. Understandable that there are rising water levels that play into the access but the communication from the staff was very poor. We left without a word or apology from anyone. Otherwise, the location as mentioned is beautiful. The breakfast was very simple and underwhelming, only bread and jams, no eggs, juice or fruit and the rooms are VERY small.

New hot springs (must make reservations a day in advance because they have to drive you into a natural spring via a massive army truck— three major river crossings). They also have a restaurant and hotel.
