poor breakfast parking lot view

the hotel location near the lake was alright.

the breakfast was a letdown. the food ran out early, and the staff seemed unwilling to replenish it. the room overlooked the parking lot instead of the lake, despite being advertised otherwise.

the grounds were well kept.

I found breakfast disappointing. Nearly all the food was gone before the official end time. the chef refused to replenish it, focusing instead on lunch preparation. the walls were thin. Noise from other guests kept me awake.

mixed feelings about this hotel

dusty room small bathroom

the gardens were immaculate, i did appreciate that.

I had issues with our room. it was dusty, and there were cobwebs everywhere. It seemed like no one had properly cleaned in a long time. the bathroom was quite small, especially considering there were four of us sharing it.
