Challenges met

- Hotel director doesn't see the reason in receiving certificate

- no written documentation (no sustainable management system, no waste management system) that is why we have to count only on director's words
Critical success factors  location of the hotel is at the wonderful place with pure nature, however in order to get there all guests have to use cars and that makes big CO2 emissions
