Great Stay Near the Lake
fabulous hostess super clean place tasty breakfast quality linen
I found the hostess to be fabulous and very accommodating. The place felt quite homely and super clean. Breakfast was great, especially the tasty local ingredients. The beds had super comfy, good quality linen, and I enjoyed the gorgeous loft room.
The shower and toilet were slightly small, but I understand space can be limited in such buildings.

The hotel is conveniently located within a ten-minute walk to the town, or about a fiver by taxi (very handy!). I found the carpark and space over the road to be useful, and the views were gorgeous.
Rooms

My room, the King Room, was comfy and had ample space, and the breakfast was made to order (the eggs were perfect!). The bedding was comfortable. The beds were also great for a restful sleep at night.

cramped bathroom rough towels
The cooked breakfast was fine. the room i had, a 'king room', felt smaller than i expected. the bathroom especially was cramped. Maneuvering around in there was like a puzzle. and the towels, though clean, felt a bit rough, they felt old too.
