Overall is good, but the night/reading lights mounted just at the wall above the head of the bed, where is danger to hurt your head when I try to get up from the bed. Those lights with metal-made fixture at sharp edges or square shape should not put there.

I liked the lake view. The staff was very friendly. The breakfast was the best out of the hotels we stayed at along our route.

Modern. Rooms were so comfortable. Windows to see outside were amazing. Restaurant was excellent. The bar and lounging area seemed great, though we didn’t get to experience it. We would stay here again.
