Acceptable boutique hotel

central locationspacious roomclosed poolslukewarm breakfast
The hotel has a central location allowing me to walk to the lake and restaurants. The character and features of the hotel created a unique look I liked. The room was spacious with high ceilings and a chandelier. The color scheme and soft furnishings created a nice vibe.
The hotel pools were closed so I had to use another spa five minutes away. I thought the breakfast was lukewarm including the coffee. It was not what I expected. There was also no hot water one evening.

The location in the city center met my needs. Walking to dinner was easy.
The bathroom had broken tiles, and cheap laminate countertops cheapens the overall look. I was really disappointed. The bathroom needs updating.
