Lake view room is amazing

The view is amazing from the room. I watched the beautiful sunset from the balcony. Highly recommend lake view room. Free onsite parking is very convenient. Location is good and only 5 min drive to the town centre. Sound proof is a bit less than perfect so bring your earplugs if you are light sleepers.

Gorgeous location

This is a decent hotel, and an amazing location, see attached picture. Everything was great. My only complaint was the shower, which has a very small showerhead and water temperature tended to fluctuate a bit. Other than that everything was good. Be sure to ask for a room with a Lakeview, it is absolutely spectacular.
