Adler Lodge Ritten

Just returned from a 4-night stay at this lodge. It was overall pleasant with a few things amiss. First the good: - The view from the lodge is absolutely gorgeous, a perfectly serene place to relax and we were blissfully happy sitting on the deck (we booked a jr chalet) doing nothing and just letting our eyes drink the view in. - The food is so wonderful!! I was especially impressed by dinner, each night they had a different 4-course menu (always with two options for each course except the dessert), as well as a couple fixed menus, and we could order from whichever menu and mix/match as we wished (and everything was included in the stay). The dishes were all creative and delicious and we almost always tried to order one of everything, this was definitely a highlight of my stay and something I looked forward to each night. The servers were always attentive to our needs and good with remembering our preferences, which is an added plus. Now the things I wished were different in our trip: - There's no AC. At our request the staff brought a fan to our room which helped a little, but still, the room was quite hot and stuffy for the days we were there at noon and during the afternoon (high temperature were in the 30C's/80-90s F). Perhaps it's because the heatwave has made recent days an anomaly? - Laundry service was broken for the first few days we were there, which was an inconvenience. - On our checkout day I unfortunately woke up with a lower fever, we called the front desk asking if there might be any Tylenol/medication for fever, 20min later someone came to my room saying they'd send something in half an hour, but until we checked out (which was like 2 hours later) no one came. This was disappointing especially compared to other hotels of similar star-level/pricing that I had experienced in the past.
