Handy location
Pros:

Handy location to walk into town. Comfortable bed. Good shower. Warm room, almost too warm. Slept with the door open during the night as no window to open..
Parking was handy.

Cons:

The duvet under the sheet was brown with dirt all around the top edge. Disgusting! We have had our own bnb, so know what to look for. Some of the towels were discolored.
A bit expensive for the type/size of room.

A cozy, beautifully designed retreat with stunning mountain views, a peaceful atmosphere, and a perfect location just mo
Pros:

The apartments are absolutely beautiful, with the most incredible mountain views, it’s the kind of outlook you never get tired of waking up to.

The layout of the space is something I really loved. As you walk down the long corridor past the kitchen, everything opens up into the lounge and bedrooms in a way that just flows so naturally. It creates this cozy, tucked-away feeling, like your own little retreat, completely removed from the outside world.

The whole atmosphere is warm and inviting, from the lighting to the lounge setup, all designed in a way that makes it so easy to relax and fully enjoy the view.

The location is also perfect, easy to access and within walking distance to the main area, which makes exploring really convenient while still feeling peaceful and quiet.

The staff were incredibly accommodating as well. I had to check in after hours, and they made the whole process seamless and stress-free.

This was my second stay here, and I would absolutely come back again. It’s amazing value for money, suits couples, solo travellers, or friends, and is just one of those places that makes your whole trip feel special.

Cons:

The shower

Pros:

The property was located on tne top of the hill which meant lovely views if we were standing outside, the place was generally clean

Cons:

Abit far from the main centre. We stayed in one of the cheaper rooms which kind of felt like staying in an attic

Good, but don’t think I would book there again
Pros:

Comfortable

Cons:

Paid for view but was at the bottom far right apartment 101, didn’t have a direct view of the lake out the window. No designated parking, had to park out in the road. That was very misleading as when I booked it suggested parking was included
