Translation of ambitious in German

The next place was huge, had warm water, two large beds, separated shower and toilet, and the windows were towards some kind of patio. I asked to receive the same but with a view to the street.
The books had cost only two or three dollars, cheap even for second hand books and after buying them I discovered that these were actually copied books and not used books. It was too late.
The view from the top was amazing. One could see the hugh lakes and the surrounding mountains, which were still covered in snow. The landscape was really fantastic and blue skies added to its beauty.
