Reviewer Type: Couple

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: Beautiful property by the lake - amazing to watch the sunset every evening. Good breakfast included within price of the room. The lakeside private room had good hot showers.

Negative: You get only 1GB of free WiFi and after that you have to pay. Staff could be slow and forgetful - we asked for an estimate of our bill the day before checkout and it took them over a day to provide this even after chasing a couple of times which quite frankly is insanity. You also have to check and follow up to get the right change from them. It also took several chases and hours to get the WiFi code for the free 1GB. The pool needs to be filtered and cleaned more regularly - although beautiful to look at it was pretty grim to swim in due to the flies and the oily, dirty water.

Summary: Beautiful lakeside property, a great place to relax.
