The photos do not do this place justice. Absolutely amazing room, so comfortable, warm, and felt like we just drove into a Swiss chalet
Nothing, everything was great.

Big room, clean everything (immaculate), very comfortable, helpful staff, short walk to big park, slightly longer walk (about 2k) to tourist district, restaurant on-site, reasonable amount of parking. Pool looked lovely ;)
If the pool were heated!

It was quirky and our room was enormous.
The amount of outside stairs to get to our room - might make it tricky for some people.

Lovely character building. Excellent service from reception staff and a room that was better than expected, in respect to size, decor and comfort

We arrived for the breakfast (paid with our room) but they had closed the Buffett early and when asked would not refund our additional charge for the meal :(
Room was basic and cleanliness was below normal
