Helvetia

From the outside, it looks like a cute hotel with a lovely view of the lake, but the rooms were a different story. Like many places in the area, there's no AC, so you need to keep a window open. That part was fine. What bothered me was the lack of proper window screens, while money seems to have gone on gaudy wallpaper and LED lights like the ones teenagers put in their rooms. With the window open, you either overheat or end up with hundreds of mosquitoes and all kinds of bugs in your room.

I hadn't stayed overnight, so I can't rate the rooms. I asked politely about breakfast for two, and even though many tables were empty, the owner rudely refused because he had a group of tourists, half of whom were leaving. It was really unpleasant. Why run a hotel and advertise it on maps? Service gets zero from me. The location is okay, near a highway exit.

We booked at the last minute and the stay surpassed our expectations. On arrival, they upgraded our room, giving us a gorgeous view of the bay. The food and service were impeccable. Magnificent, magical, marvelous! We'll definitely come back. ♥️

I was here on an EF tour, so I can't really judge the price or value. The views were amazing, and two feisty swans hung out in the water outside our window. Our room was clean and okay, though the odd T-shirt-like sheets had a couple of holes; they were comfortable enough. Two friends' rooms weren't as clean. The downstairs rooms had been updated, so request one. Restrooms down the stairs from the lobby were in a dim hallway with an adult toy vending machine, something to keep in mind if you're traveling with kids or teens.
