Pros:

Has a nice feel and a resurant in site that was handy. Quick walk across the road to the lake.

Cons:

Very noisy, you can hear everything. People walking up the hall ect. We had kids with bunks and the bunks very super noisy. However for the price point it was still good value.

Schön aber kleines Zimmer
Pros:

Schönes Hotel mit sehr freundlichen Personal. Essen im dazugehörigen Restaurant war super.

Cons:

Keinerlei Kochmöglichkeit, kein Kühlschrank, keine Mikrowelle. Lediglich ein Wasserkocher. Zimmer ist winzig klein, keinerlei Ablagefläche, weder im Bad noch im Zimmer. Hatte alles auf dem Boden am Rand entlang gestellt.

Not overly happy..
Pros:

Didn't have breakfast but liked that there was a restaurant for the evening meal..

Cons:

I didn't like that as a corner unit by the reception the lights were on all night and the blinds did not cover the windows and so for someone who likes it dark it was like sleeping in a brightly lit room which really annoyed me. No biscuits either...

Pros:

Lake front and close to town. Nice staff. Plenty of parking.

Cons:

The bedding and blankets had a really bad unwashed smell.
No chrome cast in the bedrooms or heatpumps. Quite run down dated hotel. Very hard bed. A fine hotel tho for a quick one night stay.
