I really wanted to like this Inn but...
I really wanted to like this Inn. I spent a lot of time looking on hotels.com at all the options and this seemed to be the more unique choice, and was in walking distance to one of the market squares. We arrived around 6, thinking we could have some wine from the bar and sit outside looking at the lake. Oops; bar and restaurant not open on Sunday or Monday. The room itself is rather bare bones and stark. The walls are paper thin so I could hear our neighbor showering, and hacking up a lung and blasting the TV in the morning. The bed itself was comfortable, but the sheets were some of the worst I have ever slept on, it felt like tightly woven burlap. I had to deconstruct my bed to find something softer and smoother to lay on. The receptionist was very pleasant and welcoming (I think her name was Tatiana?) so that was a pleasant start. We did walk to the market square in between raindrops to get that glass of wine, but it would have been nice to hang beside the beautiful lake rather than at crowded bar. Finally, the a/c unit took a long time to bring the room to a comfortable temperature (it was quite stuffy when we walked in). We tried to open the double hung windows only to realize they were screwed shut. Too bad; the evening air was a nice sleeping temperature. Overall, it just could have been better. Disappointed.
