Perfekte Kurzferien
Pros:

• ideale Lage im Dorfzentrum und am See. Schiffstation gleich gegenüber.
• sehr sauberes, vor wenigen Jahren schön renoviertes Zimmer mit Holzboden und Balkon mit einmaliger Aussicht auf See und Berge.
• freundliches Personal
• schönes Frühstücksbuffet; Frühstück kann bei schönem Wetter auch draussen eingenommen werden.

Cons:

Nichts.

Nur eine kleine Bemerkung:
Das Hotel besteht aus zwei Gebäuden. Bei der Eingangstür zum Teil "Alfa" wäre der Hinweis, dass das Check-In im Teil "Schmid" stattfindet, sinnvoll.

Hurmaava hotelli kauniilla sijainnilla.
Pros:

Sijainti on ihana, huoneesta oli kaunis näköala järvelle. Hotellissa oli ihana vanhan talon tunnelma. Aamupala oli erinomainen ja saimme myös pysäköintipaikan autolle hotellin takaa.

Cons:

Sänky oli liian pehmeä.
