the breakfast was very expensive for what was provided. I see that we were supposed to have a free breakfast? IT was a lovely property but I think they require a few more employees to help with maintenance and cleaning in the common areas. The room was very clean. Nice people running it.

Nice hotel with some history in lakeside setting. Friendly and helpful staff. However, we would prefer proper separation between bedroom and bathroom. Apart from that it was fine.
