Check in was easy. Nice view of the lake from our room. Giant outdoor boardgame. Room was nice. Floor was very creaky. Felt sorry for our neighbours. Check out was fast. While place is outdated & smelt musty. Cupboards are falling off in the room. No cloth or tea towel supplied. Under floor heating in bathroom. Shower pressure was awesome! No lift to second floor. No offer of help with baggage. Nice place across the road makes yummy burgers other than the restaurant they have at the V. R.
