I was “upgraded” to a room under a hallway (I presume), there were sounds of children running above my room at many hours. The room had access to lake-side patio but that made it feel less secure as it was shared with everyone. Decor is in major need of updating. Had a bath, nice. Breakfast area has weird ordering of breakfast, person who was manning the area and taking orders clearly doesn’t like the job as I couldn’t feel how much I was inconveniencing him. Location and price were good

Lake and natural environment away from the car park is beautiful, but the hotel is tired, and needs a refurbish, everything is outdated ans needs a refresh from the furniture to the towels, the staff are deflated, and reflect the atmosphere of this uncared for unkept tired hotel. If it wasn't for the lake this would have been an awful stay, we were lucky it was one night.

Just off the busy A2 so very convenient and surprisingly quiet. We had a room overlooking the lake which was a pleasant surprise. Hotel has a retro feel.

The room was spacious but not with bed and furniture very old. The shared areas (bar and restaurants) not pleasant. The external area is nice, its a shame that they dont invest in a good restructuring of the building.
