Excellent location

Great location! Easy walking to restaurants, shops, and the lake. Our room was super-clean. The parking is a bit tight, especially if your room is around the back, but it worked ok. We stayed here in February and it was pretty warm. There is no air conditioning, and the windows provide little ventilation. There was a fan in the closet, which helped.

The rooms were well furnished and included everything I needed for my stay such as iron, fan, heater, kitchen and appliances. It was very convenient having the second door that connected to the courtyard and a peaceful place to sit outside and drink my teas in the morning. The employees were very kind and friendly and were able to help me with anything I needed in my room.
