Ich war sehr angenehm überrascht, alles super!

Absolut ein tolles Hotel / Gästehaus mit einem hervorragenden Restaurant! Super service und nette Mitarbeiter! Wenn man eine ruhige Lage möchte, ist man dort absolut richtig, ein super Ausblick und komplett sicher! Ans Wasser geht es auch relativ zügig.
