The hotel is situated by a stunning lake, which adds to its charm, but the area felt a bit run down. The rooms were clean and quite comfortable, and the staff were friendly and helpful. However, dining left something to be desired with average quality food. Overall, it's a decent choice for a lakeside stay, though there were a few shortcomings that could be improved.
