My check-in was seamless. The front desk efficiently managed everything. The room provided excellent isolation. The hotel is near a supermarket, which I found very convenient. The staff organized a bar of chocolate and an ice cream voucher.

I found that the carpet in the room was dirty. This was not acceptable for a hotel of this standard.

The location is quite good, near the lake.

My room showed significant wear. The bathroom wasn't properly cleaned. I found mold in the grout. The parking situation was difficult. It was cramped and far too expensive, considering it's not even a private garage.
