The property and bathroom fixtures (toilet, shower) are quite old and worn-out. The location is good, so you forget quickly if it only one night and you find a nice place for breakfast around.

Great views of the lake

Our lovely host greeted us and she was friendly and approachable. There was a problem with our hot water in the unit - we had none, but this was quickly sorted. The view of the lake was gorgeous. We were walking distance to the restaurants. The bed was comfy and the spa bath was a bonus.
