The location of the hotel is not as central as expected, making it a bit inconvenient to walk to downtown spots, but it is close to supermarkets. The service provided by the staff is warm and welcoming, especially on the night shift. The dining experience offers high-quality products, but the timing of meals might not suit everyone. The rooms need better soundproofing to enhance the comfort of the stay.

The hotel is ideally situated, but there are some setbacks. The rooms have excellent sound-proofing and blackout curtains but lack the possibility of opening a window. The service is friendly but could benefit from better management. The location seems convenient but might not be as central as expected. Dining options are satisfactory, though with minor drawbacks.

The hotel offers rooms with amazing views, although not much space for luggage, and a window that couldn't be opened. The bed was comfortable. The service provided by the management and staff was lovely, making us feel welcomed. The location on the outskirts of town was unique, but there were some concerns about emergency readiness and the Abbey restaurant. The dining experience included chips but lacked variety in the hot food selection. Overall, the facilities were satisfactory.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and had comfortable beds for wheelchair users, with lovely net curtains and excellent blackout curtains. The service was top-notch, with managers and staff always ready to assist, even on the night shift. The location was perfect, offering a nice walk to town and a charming outdoor playground near the lake. The dining experience, although included, had limited options, but the facilities were fantastic with various amenities available.
