Fair stay NEAR the lake

convenient location breakfast option small gym old room
The location IS convenient. IT was just a short walk to the lake and nearby shops. BREAKFAST offered a nice variety of options. THE hot breakfast items were cooked to order, I liked that.
The gym was small. IT included only a treadmill and a cycle! The room felt old. IT definitely needs an upgrade soon.

great service spacious room excellent breakfast slow shower dim room delayed replenishment
The hotel's location was superb, offering tranquility. The service was attentive. The breakfast was excellent. I particularly enjoyed the fresh pastries. The room felt very spacious, a haven of peace after a day of explorations.
I found the shower took quite a while to heat up, a little inconvenient. The room could have used a bit more natural light. It felt somewhat dim. i noticed a slight delay in replenishing the tea and coffee supplies in the room.

The breakfast was very nice! it included a variety of fresh, local ingredients. the staff were wonderfully attentive. They quickly addressed my requests for extra coffee.

excellent breakfast wide choice friendly staff concrete patio misleading photos dried blood
the location is advantageous because of its walking distance to the lake. the breakfast had an excellent and wide choice of foods.
i paid extra for a garden view room. it overlooked a small concrete patio, not the garden. the photos online are misleading as rooms are in concrete chalets within the main building's grounds. i also found dried blood on the bathroom floor in the corner.
