Die Frühstücksmöglichkeit war leider sehr spärlich, vieles gab es gar nicht und insgesamt war es dann auch zu teuer. Die Lodge selbst war in Ordnung und ist gut gelegen.

The internet was very unreliable. They do have a disclaimer that the speed will be slow if there are many users but it was always slow and unreliable. Even at noon when most people were outside, it was still pretty bad. Definitely not a place if you want to do some work from the room
