Pros:

Great location with an amazing view of the lake. Very friendly and helpful staff. The location was great everything was literally 5 minutes away.

Cons:

Only heaters were on and there was no AC since it was winter so we had to have the balcony door open to cool down the room which made it a little bit noisy. Otherwise everything was great.

Carísimo para lo que ofrece.
Pros:

Ubicación del Hotel.

Cons:

Mobiliario del cuarto y baño muy anticuados.
Bufete de desayuno muy justito, faltando opciones de comida saludable y no ultra procesados y azúcares.
La cama, la almohada, la chica de la recepción que nos atendió al llegar...garaje caro y muy lejos del Hotel...
