“In my opinion, this is a great value for money, and I think it distinguishes itself with an unusual extra, the enhanced hospitality trays. I noted its location on a quiet residential street only a short walk from the town and lake; plus, there's ample public parking. The views of both the mountains and lake from the site, in my view, only add to its appeal.”

The location was good. I found fresh towels in the Double Room. The host provided restaurant recommendations , which was very useful.

I found the parking on the narrow street difficult. The room was very small, it only had one chair. The heating did not work on the first night , and I had to ask for it to be turned on.
