The location. Its right by the lake and is perfect if you are doing ring road. Its at the intersection of major spots around the area. Kitchen was well stocked.

“Wonderful”
Our stay was wonderful. Due to other bookings, we were moved to a different accommodation with even more amenities, located just a few meters away on the opposite side of the street. We were able to rest very well — something very important to us — and also enjoy the accommodation, especially the water views. The kitchen and shared dining area were clean, organized, and fully equipped with everything we needed. Both check-in and check-out were automatic and self-service, which we found very convenient. We would definitely stay here again!

Spacious room, fully equipped kitchen and bathroom, front door parking, lakeside location. On top of that an excellent host who allowed us to stay longer in the guesthouse when we were stuck as all the roads were close due to a snow storm

“Good place to stay”
A bit too basic and a bit old for the price, I suggest painting the building

“Very good.”
I liked the facilities overall, everything was clean and handy. Parking was a bit full, but I was able to park my car nevertheless. Kitchen had everything I needed, bathrooms were also super fine and the room was confortable.
