My stay at the hotel was simply wonderful. The rooms were spacious and beautifully furnished, some even offering stunning lake views and balconies, although mine overlooked the road despite my request for a quiet room. The service was top-notch, with the staff being welcoming, kind, and accommodating, going above and beyond to assist me during my visit. The location couldn't have been better, just a stone's throw away from various transportation options to explore the area. The dining experience was delightful, with a fantastic selection of fresh and regional products. Overall, a truly memorable and relaxing stay.
