Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a lovely scenic area by the rowing lake, offering a fantastic location with beautiful scenery. The rooms are comfortable, though lacking a bit in accessibility and space. The service was pleasant, with some minor areas for improvement noted. Dining was good but could be fresher, and the facilities are satisfactory but not outstanding.
The hotel was situated in a convenient location near the rowing lake with a lovely walking route. The rooms required some maintenance but were changed upon request. The staff, under challenging circumstances, were pleasant and helpful. The dining experience was disturbed by external noise but was generally good. The grounds were beautiful even though there were no laundry facilities. The hotel offered acceptable prices.
The hotel rooms were spacious and amazing, providing plenty of comfort, but the noise from corridors and above rooms was bothersome. It would have been better if there was more space for breakfast due to delivery shortages. The service was friendly, with staff doing their best despite being short-staffed. The location was tranquil and offered a great view of the river, although not very close to the city center. The dining experience was subpar with limited options and cold dishes. However, the facilities were basic but clean.
