Great location and good place to stay

Overall the hotel is a good choice. It’s very well located and has reasonable prices for the area. Breakfast was only just passable. I had a single room which was quite well set up. The mattress, however, urgently needs replacing as it has a large hollow at hip level from overuse. The bathroom was small but functional. Be aware, though, that the shower is very small and if you are larger than average you probably won’t have a particularly enjoyable shower.

The property needs updating and the room wasn’t that functional-safe was locked and I useable, bathroom was big but with virtually no storage area for toiletries and with a yrinal and toilet?, only an armoire to hang clothes and room was noisy with main road foot and street traffic. Staff is lovely, it’s well located, and very walkable from the ferries. Breakfast had real eggs , limited fruit and no decafe coffee All in all-a basic hotel that’s located just off lake “love” trail and within easy walking of main Varenna and ferries

Stay elsewhere! No AC, no fan, no elevator. Staff unwilling to help with broken ac. We could sleep as it was 98 degrees F in our room. We carried 2 large suitcases up 3 flights of stairs to a room with no ac or fan. After 1 sleepless night we decided to check out in the morning. Staff was nothing but argumentative about everything. No refund, no apology, no attempt to help with the matter. We checked into a neighboring hotel and had a lovely rest of our stay.

Unlike pics there was no view of the lake. No parking and wifi did not work both nights. 2nd time we reported no wifi the hotel desk clerk said it was impossible! Room was very dated and entryway smelled musty. Breakfast was meagre and the bacon was never restocked. Only positive was proximity to promenade

The hotel is very convenient from the train station and to the ferry dock. The young woman who greeted me was most friendly. The breakfast was quite disappointing in quality and portions. The only hot breakfast item, eggs and bacon, ran out quickly and was not refilled. The hotel had an unpleasant cleansing agent smell.
