The property is very old, dated, and the carpet is really dirty. The bed was a bit uncomfortable. The location was really terrific. In the view of the lake was good.

Lounge was great. Location was great. Views were fantastic. Room decor was odd and room was somewhat small. Carpets need washing. Shower water temperature was very inconsistent.
