Amazing views and comfy rooms

The hotel is perfectly situated for amazing lake views. The staff is friendly, breakfast was very tasty, and the rooms are comfy and cozy. The reason it's not a 5-star review is (1) they failed to service our room one of the three days we were there and (2) there were some condition issues of the hotel grounds - the hot tub was questionable at best and the dock on the lake was dangerously weathered. Despite that, I would recommend.

Beautiful place

The hotel was beautiful, located right on the lake. Our room was really nice, but the bathroom ceiling was old and crumbling, and the blinds were broken. There was also smell of sewage during the night. We mentioned this to the receptionist and she changed our rooms by the third night and offered us a free dinner at the restaurant as a compensation. The second room was lovely. The pool could use a clean up. But overall the experience was lovely and we got engaged there so we have a special place for this hotel in our memory now:)

Great location & facilities,dinner disappointing.

Large, comfortable room, great view and quiet location. Dinner expensive, small portions and not great experience. My husband had tortellini which was lukewarm (reheated on request). I had Caesar salad, which was small, contained good amount of chicken, chunky croutons, minimal lettuce, regular cheese slices (not Parmesan) but nothing else.

instalaciones viejas y deterioradas, decia que tenía picina interna y era un jacuzzi la picina externa no estaba habilitada, la bajada al río inhabilitada, pisos rotos, telarañas, el desayuno limitado y los recepcionistas eran los mozos y los que elaboraban el desayuno, espacios limitados en el restaurante. El faro cerrado y peligroso para subir. Muchos peligros para los niños
