There is an abandoned guesthouse called Cabana Valea Radului close to Făgăraș at around 1400m of altitude, see osmand for more information. Mrmagicmax found it while hiking in the area and gladly answers all your questions about it. It does not have running water or electricity, but a lot of space and all in all is in good shape. Drinking water can be obtained from the river next to the house - Mrmagicmax didn't get sick from it, yet. No dumpsterdiving spots in the area have been discovered so far. The house has a oven, but it was not tried yet, whether it is working. There is enough firewood in the forest around it. There is also a smaller shelter further up the mountain at ~2100m, called Refugiul Curmăturii Brațile, which some very adventureous people could try to reach. Access to the house was via a broken window and there were also traces of people using it as their home (A matress and a blanket, some dog poo on the floor), but no person could be found.
