We had a room looking out onto the grass and lake, fantastic. We could walk out of our room out to the lake edge. The room was spacious and very comfortable, no complaints at all. Very warm and cozy with an exceptional view.

The room is clean but the toilet is stained. Shower is very contested. The guy in the reception has a very serious face, he needs a smile on his face.
