Great location right on the waterfront, although our room didn’t have a lake view as it was facing the wrong way. There was quite a strong damp smell when we first entered, and the carpets were very stained and dated. The spa was great though and exactly what we needed. The heated bedding was also a nice touch. Overall, the place has potential, but it could really do with a serious refresh and redecoration. Because of that I wouldn't say the price matched the room
