Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is strategically located in the heart of the city, offering a stunning view of the lake. The staff are welcoming and friendly, ensuring a pleasant stay. However, the rooms need improvement with a lack of wardrobe space and occasional disturbance during bedding collection.
The hotel could use some improvements, especially in the rooms which were dirty, moldy, and in need of some basic maintenance. On the positive side, the service was caring and understanding. The location is convenient but can get noisy at night due to nearby nightclubs. The dining experience was decent but could be enhanced with more variety. The facilities need some upgrades.
