Contenta
Pros:

Gentilezza, professionalità, disponibilità dello staff; posizione dell'hotel; camera di dimensioni corrette, pulita, silenziosa e con balcone vista lago (laterale); ristorante con vasta scelta di proposte giornaliere oltre al menù fisso

Cons:

Non sono abituata a dormire senza lenzuola, con solo coprimaterasso e piumone: l'ho fatto presente e mi hanno garantito che per la prossima volta sarà come gradito, quindi tutto ok.

Wir würden es nicht nochmal buchen .
Pros:

Die Lage und das freundliche Personal ist das einzige was uns gefallen hat.

Cons:

Die Betten haben gequietscht, die Ausstattung sehr alt. Das Essen im Restaurant ist für das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis überteuert…

Very nice location, next to a park with beautiful trees, to the lake, and to the old part of town.
Pros:

The staff was very helpful and kind. The breakfast menu had a lot of choice. I especially appreciated the fresh fruit.
