lake views and kind staff

excellent locationkind staffthoughtful provisionair conditioning
the hotel's location proved superb, with our room overlooking the tranquil lake. the staff were consistently kind and ready to assist. i found the provision of both still and sparkling water daily, alongside a coffee machine and tea bags, thoughtful. i certainly plan a return visit (hopefully soon!).
the hotel lacked air conditioning. it was a bit bothersome since the weather was unexpectedly warm. opening the doors brought in unwanted light (and mosquitoes!).

the location involves a steep hill. carrying luggage up it was challenging. i also found the lack of in-room amenities disappointing. there was no kettle or refrigerator in my room. this made it difficult to prepare simple refreshments.
