Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Honestly, it's not the most modern hotel. There's no mini-fridge in the room, and the TV isn't the latest model. But the rooms are large and very spacious, clean, and the beds are comfortable. The staff was courteous, and the breakfast was reasonable. The price was attractive and, in my opinion, worth the money. For those who are intimidated by a luxurious hotel, this may not be the first choice, but for those who want a nice place on a reasonable budget, this is definitely a reasonable option.

Breakfast buffet was always empty, everything run out and they wouldn't refill, things like bacon-bread-eggs-fruit. Even when you asked if they will refill staff will rudly reply that it has run out. We stayed for 1 week and our room floor was never cleaned, our beds were never made and we had to ask presidently for clean towels, which we got once. Even bed linen were too small and did not fit the beds, so you ended up sleeping on a bare mattress by the morning.No kettle in the room for your morning tea. No frigde in the room. Avoid this place.

Die Suite gebucht, das war der Plan, Doch an der Rezeption fing es an. „Tut uns leid, wir haben kein Zimmer mehr frei, Doch zwei Economy-Räume stehen dabei.“ Die Vorfreude getrübt, doch wir arrangierten, Obwohl wir uns mehr hatten erhofft und studiert. Das Frühstück jedoch, ein wahrer Genuss, Ein Buffet, das man einfach probieren muss. Frisch, vielfältig und schön angerichtet, Auch das Abendessen hat uns nicht verpflichtet. Das Buffet war die beste Wahl für den Magen, Wir würden es jederzeit wieder wagen. Nach dem Eisbaden im kalten See, War der Wellnessbereich pure Idee. Die Sauna dampfte, der Jacuzzi ein Segen, Hier konnten wir die Kälte ablegen. Doch das Aufräumen blieb ein Problem, Das Schild blieb wohl ungelesen bequem. So blieb das Zimmer ein kleines Schlachtfeld, Das andere diente als Rückzugswelt. Ein Aufenthalt mit Höhen und Tiefen, Viel Potenzial, doch auch Baustellen geblieben.
