What should have been a pleasant vacation turned out to be something else. Unfortunately we read the reviews after our stay at Manou du Lac Annecy otherwise we would not went to that place at all. It all starts with the misleading pictures on booking.com.

We turned the chair around and it was previously repaired with new screws. Still they withhold a large amount from our deposit. Most likely they are repairing the chair again and try to do their little scam again with another visitor. This is not all, we paid 150 euros for cleaning of the house.
