I booked a Lake View Economy unit. There was no tea/coffee making facilities as stated in the description. There was a sink in the room, but no hot water and no plug for the sink. I had a Japanese Poke Bowl Salad for my meal in the bar, which was OK but not very exciting and rice-heavy.

The hotel standard and cleanliness is terrible. This so call a 4 star hotel is unbelievable, completely run down, disgusting carpet/floor, cobwebs everywhere, moldy in the bathroom windows and ceilings, black mold in the shower, stains on the floor. The room where the breakfast served is disgusting, it was so uncomfortable to eat in there. The smell mold in the building make me sick. I'd like to thank the two ladies, one in reception, who checked us in/out, and the one who served our dinner. Both were very nice and welcoming.

Extremely quiet and peaceful stay with a nice view of lake brunner. Nothing noteworthy and nothing out of the ordinary either. Breakfast could have better selections other than toasts and cereals but we understand the simplicity nature of the place. No fanciful glamour of the busy touristy places.

When i booked the property i ooked believeing that i was booki g a room with a hand rail in toilet/ shower and a raised toilet seat which would be great as i was traveling with a friend who had had hip replacement surgery 10 days prior. Unfortunately we did not receive this room and we were put in the older part of the hotel. The hotel did not appear to be busy or booked full. I should have mentioned this once it became apparent we were in the room i didnt book for but i didnt do that at the time, i did mention it on checking out and they said they would look into it....ive not heard back.
