Clean, functional, nicely located hotel
Pros:

Very nice location near a beautiful lake. The hotel was clean and well organized. We arrived very late at night and had no problem getting into our room. The room was clean and functional with an amazing view of the Alps from the balcony. The breakfast was good and the staff very friendly and helpful. We were on our way to Tuscany but would definitely consider staying at this hotel for a longer stay in the future. It’s a bit run down in some areas and could use a face lift but all in all, a very good stay! Would recommend!

Pros:

Freundliche Begrüssung. Gleich alles Wichtige erklärt. Frühstück war gut, ein bisschen Abwechslung wäre wünschenswert gewesen, aber prinzipiell in Ordnung und ausreichend. Mit dem Auto alles rasch erreichbar. Zimmer in Ordnung. Spielplatz draussen für die Kids. Drinnen eine Spielecke.

Personale molto cortese e disponibile, che di fronte a degli imprevisti ci è venuto incontro in ogni modo. Appartamenti ampi con tutto. Colazione gestita molto bene. Zona immersa nel verde, ma vicina a tutto.

Loved the place, friendly staff, cool owner
Pros:

We arrived late at night to the hotel, reception was closed but the owner had left an envelope with everything we needed for our stay with a warm handwritten note (including instructions to get a beer from the fridge!)
The room was clean and spacious, the property well maintained, and breakfast next morning delicious.
Would definitely stay here again!

Pros:

Bella struttura con varie tipologie di camere. Vicino ai laghi e a qualche ristorante. Colazione semplice ma completa, anche se avrei preferito anche qualche dolce o brioche come opzione. Peccato non disponga di ristorante

Molto buona la colazione e la cortesia dei proprietari, gentili e sorridenti. La struttura è un po' vecchia, soprattutto il bagno, ma per un paio di giorni è andato più che bene, anche in relazione al prezzo pagato.

Pros:

Sehr netter Empfang und ein ordentliches, sauberes Zimmer.

Wir haben diese Unterkunft als Zwischenstop nach Kroatien besucht. Über das Essen in der Unterkunft können wir nicht viel sagen da an diesem Abend ein Grillabend veranstaltet wurde. Das Grillgut selber war sehr gut. Es gab eine große Auswahl an verschiedenen Fleischsorten, Fisch, Grillgemüse und eine gut sortierte Salatbar. Das Frühstücksbuffet war gut. Es gab ausreichend Wurst, Käse, verschiedene Aufstriche und Frühstückscerealien. Zu erwähnen ist hier auch das frisch gemachte Rührei. An der Kaffeemaschine gab es eine große Auswahl an verschiedenen Kaffeespezialitäten.

Die Vermieterin gab uns noch einen guten Ausflugstip. Die Tropfsteinhöhle von Postojna war sehr schön und ein Zwischenstop wert. Danke hierfür.

Pros:

Die Umgebung ist traumhaft schön. Für einen längeren Aufenthalt ist es durch die Straße sehr Laut und kein Erholungsfaktor. Für ein bis Übernachtungen dennoch gut geeignet. Die Besitzer sind sehr freundlich und das anliegende Restaurant ist auch Prima. Ausflüge sind von der Unterkunft in kurzer Zeit zu erreichen.
