As seniors we could not discover tv one for news. Tv system certainly not geared for the elderly. More instructions perhaps. Cleaning average. Side table not wiped after last guests. Black markings on walls are not attractive to the traveller. Bed was good. Unit very quiet sleep being next to jolly good fellow pub and main road. Being close to jolly good fellow a bonus that should be promoted. Nothing in unit. Thanks for the stay. Budget wise very good

Convenient location, easy check in, restaurant next door is great. But the room smelt bad, beds not made properly, bathroom was mouldy, sink leaked, no internet, no soap and the small shampoo and body gel was used / half empty, lighting was terrible especially in the bathroom.

Everything we needed!

Great view of the lake. Easy parking. Nice comfortable bed. Decent couch that was also comfortable. Good spa bath in bathroom. Shower was terrible, kept going ice cold, then burning hot every 10seconds. Not sure if neighbouring room using their water affects it or not but needs to be sorted. Great location.

Customer service was good but everything else was far from it. The room was disgusting! Mold on the walls in the shower, uncleaned benches and surfaces. Room smelt funny, shower definitely wasn’t cleaned with old soap and hairs over the mixer. Really didn’t feel comfortable enough to “ make my self at home “ here.
