Very new and modern. Great spacious rooms. It’s certainly not 4 stars, but we had a very pleasant stay. And shout out to Katia - she made us feel very special and welcome! It’s around 15 mins walk to the main areas, but a nice quiet hotel room. Which we appreciated. Definitely recommend!

OK but nothing special
The stay was pleasant but it was definitely not a 4-star hotel. It was more like an upgraded ibis, friendly (except one manager looking guy at the reception) but basic service and super standard facilities & breakfast without any special charms. No complaints, but I would stay at a different hotel of the same star-rating next time which I stayed before in the area. Location was good.

Very clean and modern hotel that is in a nice, quiet location. It is walkable to the old city and lake (flat sidewalk, roughly 15 minutes). The staff were friendly.

Great stay, would come back
Friendly and professional yet down-to-earth staff. Katia at the breakfast service was one of a kind, someone you won't forget about. She was relaxed, charmy and "everywhere" at the same time - great hospitality! The hotel is 10 minutes from the lake, and it's fresh and clean. The only downside was the pillow which to me was too thick. All in all, very good stay!
