I really do object to this practice of checking yourself in with a key-code. It has removed the hospitality from what used to be the hospitality industry. A hotel should always have someone on the front desk to welcome you and answer your questions .. day and night. However, once we had got past that we had an excellent stay in the lakeside hotel. The room was superb and the lakeview was magnificent. I was pleased to see people on duty in the breakfast room. The breakfast was excellent and I am grateful to the gentleman who provided a toaster on request. In spite of my reservations I will come and stay here again.

We arrived pretty late and did not expect to be welcomed by the hotel's staff (we received check-in instructions in case the reception was closed). To ou surprise, they were waiting for us with a complimentary drink and a lot of friendly recommendations for dinner and activities in the area. They also changed our room for a bigger lakeside one with a great view. Our only regret was to only stay there one night.

Huone oli siisti, mukava ja ilmastoitu.

Ihan kiva hotelli. Ilmastointi oli helteiden helpotus, myös hyvä uimaranta ja laituri siinä ihan vieressä. Harmittavaa oli että toinen kylpypyyhe oli jäänyt siivouksessa vaihtamatta ja oli likainen ja haiseva ! Onneksi oli omat pyyhkeet mukana.. Muuten huone ja kylpyhuone olivat siistit. Ihmetyttää vaan taas ettei hotelleissa pestä lavuaarin vedenlaskuaukon metalliritilää, on aina limainen ja keltainen, vaikka puhdistukseen menisi n. 5 sekuntia… Sängyt olivat hyvät.
