“Clean and spacious with ample hospitality in the room”
+Large superior room worth paying the extra. Breakfast staff also excellent as well as the continental breakfast.
−Black out blinds would be a big plus and there was a little traffic noise in the morning. This is to be expected due to the location. Didn’t spoil our stay

+Perfect location. 2 mins walk to town centre. 15 mins to lake. Beautiful view . Hosts were very welcoming and even chilled a bottle of wine for us. It was waiting in our room on ice with two glasses when we got back in the evening.
−Bed was a little firm for our liking. Not a massive issue but would have liked a change of towels , milk tea coffee during our stay. But would still book again and recommend
