'In Fundata, I was first blown away by the scenery – yes, the typical example of a dotted Romanian mountain village. Splendid and still authentic – partly due to its remoteness. Stoian Family still has a traditional house standing; it dates back to 1922 and is full of interesting exhibits. I even spotted an old radio (one that my Grandpa used to own) amidst male and female garments, the wheel motif as the passing of the time – very present in Romanian decorations –, or even an old school bag that historian Prahoveanu admitted to have worn during his childhood years. A perfect surprise was still in store: a yard feast. Romanian style. Complete with cheese of two kinds, white bread, red onions, and pălincă. For those dessert lovers like me, the highlight was however the big stack of homemade donuts, spread on several plates on the long wooden table. We left watching a few people jog or mountain bike the trails and happy for the cheese we had bought, as its taste had bewildered us at lunch.'

Schuster Boarding House

5/5 Excellent

"Schuster Boarding House is one of the nocest hotels we ever stayed at. Our room was very modern (make sure to use the wall mounted control panel to control lights and AC) and it was beautiful. The front desk staff and the breakfast room staff were wonderful. The breakfast buffet was excellent and changed daily. The lady working the breakfast room was very attentive and thoughtful. "
