Average hotel
Hotel is older but they are making efforts to update. Beds were really comfortable. Look for the fridge and kettle in main room console! Took me a while to find them! 😂 Breakfast buffet- hot food items were not great but other items available to sustain you.

Liked: Cleanliness
Parking was diabolical, not nearly enough for the number of rooms, had to park on the road at the back and walk up in the freezing cold. There was a door at the back of the hotel which was locked, a controlled entry/exit would have made things much easier as we were only a few rooms away but had to walk to the other end of the hotel and then back again outside. Bathroom was very dated and the shower over the bath downright dangerous, a grotty rubber mat and high step over the bath not good for those with mobility/balance issues, not to mention the soggy wet shower curtain. Upon arrival the floor in the bathroom looked as though it hadn't been cleaned and the consumables in the bathroom were not replenished during our three day stay, had to visit reception twice to request additional supplies. Beds were very comfortable and the linen of a good standard.

Lovely Lakefront view
The hotel is in a very good position, right on the Lakefront, as the name implies. The view from the restaurant at breakfast was stunning. There is enough parking, but due to the narrowness of the parking spaces, we couldn't fit our car in easily between two other vehicles, so had to find how to get to the back, where the entrance was not really obvious.
