Relaxing thermal pools

This motel is in a quiet location and yet only a short walk from the bars, restaurants and lakefront. The room was spacious, with a balcony. However there was no view from the balcony. There is a very large supermarket within walking distance. The highlight of this motel was the 2 thermal pools. One was a spa, the other a plunge pool with a temperature of about 40 C. It looks a bit gloomy because it is painted dark green, but it is so relaxing after a day's sightseeing. There is also a swimming pool.
