On arrival our room stuck of 2 minute noodles. The double mattress was 100 years old, incomfortable and you could feel the springs poking through. At 5.30 on Sunday morning, someone began rattling bottles in the kitchen or hallway and around half hour later doors and keys were being opened and closed all up and down the hallway. Definitley not somewhere you’d expect to pay $180 per night.

Our room was not clean. We had two beds, the king bed pillows and top of bed was covered in dust so we could not sleep in it. The coffee mugs in the cupboard were still dirty, coffee all down the sides of the cups. We could write our name in the dust on our bedside table and alarm clock. Very disappointing for our one night away. I would expect this from a $100 per night motel !!

Really enjoyed staying here. Room had balcony with views across to the lake. Spacious, clean room and comfortable bed. The pool was a pleasant start to the day.
