“Can do better”
The location is walking distance to the city cruise centre, very convenient. Just walk out to the main street there are plenty of food choices. It's a small town, there's not much to expect. But the frontal lake view is awesome.

The breakfast was included in the fare but was quite average. No coffee service, ketchup or jam/peanut butter on the table. When I asked for some jam I received only one pack. Seemed stingy. The food was okay.
