The room was very clean and spacious. The staff were very welcoming on arrival and provided us with some milk. The parking was plentiful and we were able to park the car in view of them room. The air conditioning worked perfectly. The view from the room was stunning and the bed very comfortable.

Staff all good
The downside people smoking on the balcony on the second night couldn’t open our door to get fresher

Beautiful view and a nice spot.
I just can't give any higher rating due to the bed being uncomfortable and the hallway light not being blocked out by the curtains.

Great lakeside location. Large clean room. Had everything everything we needed. Lift to upstairs level was useful - though 'clunky'. Seemingly reliable though.

Room was a good size and had everything we needed for our two nights. Parking right outside and nice view of the lake across the road. Added bonus of having a laundry. Good location for the lake, town and nice restaurants.

Such a lovely welcome from the gentleman on reception! Friendly, helpful, informative, just everything you could want on arrival at your accommodation. He even gave us an upgraded room with a wonderful view of the lake. Limited space for food prep but we knew it was microwave only, so we were prepared. A little noisy from other guests but not through the night, so we had a great sleep. Highly recommend for a short stay.
