Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms, while a bit dated, were clean and uncluttered, with a newly redone bathroom featuring a stainless steel countertop and sink. Having a separate bedroom and full kitchen and dining facilities added to the comfort. The staff was very polite and happy to assist, making my stay enjoyable. The location was great, with good off-street parking and pleasantly quiet surroundings, although there were some unkept areas.
The hotel room was quite small, making it difficult to move around and use the wardrobe due to the furniture placement. Our late check-in made things challenging as the office was closed for the day. Additionally, the lack of an oven meant we had to fry our pizza instead. The photos did not accurately represent the actual facilities, especially the pool.
The lodge offers good standard room options for our visit, clean, and well presented, resembling more of a studio apartment with a separate kitchen. The friendly team made the stay enjoyable, but the narrow room layout could be inconvenient for movement. The proximity to family was beneficial, yet the presence of many cars around may not suit all guests.
