Pros:

Hôtel très calme dans une ruelle sans voiture. Hôte très attentionné. Lits très confortables. Douches avec pression et eau chaude. Joli jardin dans lequel on peut manger (tables dans la végétation) en prenant des plats à emporter dans un restaurant. On conseille Deli Jasmin (produits frais délicieux).
Emplacement à 5 mn à pied du lac et des lanchas pour aller dans les villages autour du lac, des restaurants, commerces...

Cons:

Rien
