Nice Stay.
Hotel is clean and comfortable. Staff was friendly. Breakfast was good. The proximity to the lake and several small restaurants is ideal. Pool is also quite nice. Only downside is if it is Hot, there is no AC, which is pretty normal in this area. They will provide you with a fan for your room, which helps a lot.

Boutique hotel in a tranquil setting
The hotel is some distance from the busy main road and town center, so it is very peaceful. It is a short walk through the old town to the lakeside, where they have restaurants. Also, it is close to the Alprose chocolate factory where you can buy very cheap (and good) chocolates.
