I liked the quiet, cozy atmosphere — the frozen lake view right from the backyard was absolutely beautiful and so peaceful. The hot shower was excellent and much appreciated after being out in the cold. The only downside for me was that the beds were a bit too bouncy for my taste, but overall it was a relaxing stay.

Friendly staff, spacious and clean, nice location. Only disappointment was the shower. Was tricky to get the handle in the right position for warm water (which there was plenty of); but the shower head holes were too small which resulted in a somewhat painful experience.
