  Excellent last chapter to our honeymoon!

  Liked: We visited as the final stop on our honeymoon trip and it exceeded all of our expectations! The view of the lake from the balcony was wonderful and the service was exceptional. The breakfast in the morning was delicious, had a great variety and outstanding service - and was early enough for us to catch the train to the airport. 10/10

  Disliked: Nothing- it was all great!
