The rooms are large and very comfortable. The staff recommendations for restaurants and activities were great. The rooms have sliding doors that open onto a joint balcony area with chairs outside and great views of the lake and mountains. Or, you can just sit on your bed and look out the sliding doors at the same view.

This has to be the cleanest and best Hotel room/apartment we have ever stayed in and we have travelled to a lot of countries. The outside was immaculate. Attention to detail was excellent. I would highly recommend anyone to stay here and this is only a short walk to the town centre and tour operators. Great place and staff!
