Für 1 Nacht als Zwischenstopp ok
Pros:

Frühstück sehr gut. Viele Vögel am See. Tolle Stimmung beim Sonnenuntergang.

Cons:

Leider kein schönes Zimmer. Wir hatten Aussicht auf den Hinterhof. Ist ein Hotel für viele Busreisen die nur zum Essen oder Übernachten kommen.

Immer wieder und ein zweites Mal - Unheimlich ruhige Lage, erholsame Betten, toller Service!
Pros:

Zimmer: Top Top Top, geräumig, tolle Betten und Kopfkissen, Bad hatte nur eine Badewanne, ggfs. Für ältere Menschen ist der Einstieg als Dusche etwas zu hoch.
Sauna: Kleine Vier-Personen Sauna + Hot Tube. Der lag am Abend in der Sonne und war Entspannung pur.
Frühstück: Alles da. Obst, Müsli, Eier, Bacon, Waffeln, … - wer sich hier Schwert, da weiss ich nicht was es bei denen zu Hause gibt.
Personal: Vom Empfang bis zum Restaurant, sehr guter Service und sehr aufmerksames Personal. Wir waren die ersten Gäste bei Anreise mit dem Wunsch auf die Sauna. Diese wurde umgehend einsatzbereit gemacht, frische Handtücher, Bademantel, Slipper - alles free of charge = LIKE :-)

Cons:

Ich weiss es nicht. Mann müsste das Haar in der Suppe suchen :-)
