Categories

Cleanliness
7
Generally reported as clean and well-kept by many guests, but several reviews mention specific issues (dirty floor, hairs in the shower) that lower confidence.
Service
8.9
Staff frequently described as friendly, helpful and efficient (quick check-in/out); isolated reports of less courteous behaviour reduce but do not negate overall positive sentiment.
Location
9.2
Consistently praised for being very close to the lake and centrally located; repeatedly cited as a major positive.
Room Quality
7
Multiple comments about small or dated rooms, thin walls/noise, small TVs, and bathroom issues (shower/drain problems, limited toiletries) indicate room quality is noticeably below top-tier.
Amenities
8.4
Good amenities cited (pool, parking/garage, buffet breakfast); some negatives such as missing toiletries, weak hairdryer, no AC at times and tiny TV reduce perfection but overall solid.
Value for Money
8.4
Several guests explicitly state strong price–performance and good value; balanced by a few who found rooms underwhelming for the price.
Food and Beverage
9
Breakfast is the most consistently praised feature (varied, plentiful, fresh); a small number of reviews found it limited or disappointing, but general consensus is very positive.
Overall Experience
7.7
Overall positive experiences — comfortable, well-located, good breakfast and parking — tempered by recurring issues with room size/noise and occasional cleanliness lapses.

Bearly a three star from my point of view. Bad facilities and we bearly got any rest during our stay. The staff was nice
Pros:

-Nice staff
-Free parking
-Good location for the beaches, but a 20 min hike to the town center

Cons:

-AC very load and smelled funny. Either choose between a way to hot rom, or no sleep due to noisy AC.
-Bed and pillow where rock hard
-Extremely nosy hotel with little sound isolation. Could hear the next door room get text on their phone and the dog far down the hall.

Świetna miejscówka.
Pros:

Mały, kameralny hotel w drugiej lini zabudowy przy głównej drodze. Bardzo mili gospodarze. Pyszne śniadanie, urozmaicone i bogate. Ciepłe, zimne, pyszna kawa, owoce, warzywa, słodkości. Bardzo czysto. Duży parking. Przechowalnia rowerów. Mały pokój i jeszcze mniejsza łazienka z mikroskopijnym prysznicem. Ale my w pokoju tylko spaliśmy tak więc nam to nie przeszkadzało. Wygodne łóżko, poduszki. Klimatyzacja. Fajny basen z leżakami i dość sporym ogrodem. Do centrum Rivy około 15 min pieszo. Wielkie podziękowanie za śniadanie przygotowane specjalnie dla nas z powodu wczesnego wyjazdu. Polecam 😊

Cons:

Bardzo małe pokoje dwuosobowe. Mikroskopijny prysznic.

Cons:

The hotel itself was ok, clean, and well located. However, my experience was unfortunately affected by one member of the staff, who came across as quite rude and unwelcoming. Hospitality is about making guests feel comfortable, and this interaction left a negative impression on our stay.

I hope the management takes this feedback seriously, as improving customer service would make a big difference.

Gutes Preis- Leistungsverhältnis
Pros:

Das Zimmer war schön groß mit einem Sofa. Das Bad war auch relativ neu mit einer ebenerdigen Dusche. Frühstück war auch gut, frisches Obst gab es immer, alles wurde immer aufgefüllt. Das Hotel lag nah an der Hauptstrasse, aber die Fenster hatten super Schallschutz.

Cons:

Der Pool sah nicht so einladend aus.

Alt i alt et fint ophold - men værelserne var små og vi måtte flytte et værelse da det lugtede og det hjalp de fint med.
Pros:

Det var tæt ved Gardasøen og der var en lille gåtur på ca. 15 min ind til byen.

Cons:

Der manglede noget servering ved poolen - samt noget hygge omkring baren på hotellet, der var altid lidt mørkt og dunkelt! Der var ikke mulighed for at købe snacks eller en let frokost på hotellet, så når der står der er restaurant, så er det kun til servering af morgenmad.. morgenmaden var fin med et godt udvalg!
