    the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making me feel right at home. the location near the lake was amazing, offering stunning views and lush surroundings. What I liked best were the personal touches such as the team organizing my airport pick-up and tours around the city. It was a great way to explore the area with knowledgeable locals.
