Adequate stay near Plitvice Lakes

lovely groundsgreat mealsmall towelrough towel

The location is close to Plitvice Lakes National Park, if travelling by car (i travelled by car). The grounds of the hotel were lovely. I enjoyed a great meal in the restaurant.

The bathroom needs improvements, in my opinion. Towels are small (not very practical) and rough. The shower floods the floor.
