Leisure & Business
Thanks to an indoor swimming pool with a hot tub, guests can enjoy a great stay.
“What this place lacks in modernity, it makes up for with its stellar location right by the beach-a real plus. I found the rooms acceptably clean and quiet, and the staff genuinely sweet, though be warned the lobby might occasionally be unmanned. Despite some outdated aspects and the occasional ant, access to the lake and overall experience were positive.”
