Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a fantastic view of the lake and a traditionally furnished room with a comfortable bed. The lack of entertainment options like cable or satellite TV is a downside, but the stunning sunset view makes up for it. The service was efficient and friendly, with quick responses from the staff. The location overlooks the lake, providing a serene setting, but the service in the restaurant may need improvement. The dining experience was satisfying with tasty menu choices, though not extensive. Despite minor flaws, the hotel offers a pleasant stay with beautiful views.
The hotel was good value for money despite the uncomfortable twin beds and some cleanliness issues. The receptionist's misinformation about room features was a downside, but the compassionate and thoughtful staff made the stay enjoyable.
My stay at the hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The rooms, although not exactly as expected, were cozy and clean. The service provided by the staff was exceptional, and I am looking forward to returning soon. The location of the hotel was simply breathtaking, with stunning views and serene surroundings. The dining experience was top-notch with a great selection of delicious meals. However, the service at times was slightly confusing, and the cleanliness upon arrival left something to be desired.
