Overall the hotel was a good place to reside for a couple of nights.The room was spacious and very clean.The bed was very comfortable.It was just a few minutes walk to the restaurants.Also it had a seemingly unlimited walking path alongside the lake which I found very pleasant.The only flaw was the shower door which allowed water to escape on the bathroom floor when taking a shower.Overall I would recommend to people as a great reasonably priced motel to stay a few nights.

Somewhat thin walls, I could hear next door's kids shouting at 6am. The parking bays do not match with the front doors of the rooms, leading to people parking in other's designated spots. The signs need to be clearer.

Disgusting smell in bathroom of a night, coming from the drains. Had to keep door shut to try and stop smell coming into the bedroom, not much luck with that! Also unable to lock door, had to leave it unlocked to go out and then sleep. Manager came next morning to fix it. No handle on door to outside area, had to make sure it didn't slam, otherwise would have been locked out. Whole motel needs a facelift, very shabby looking! Very expensive for what it is.

Our fourth stay. Disappointed this time. Leaking shower over bathroom floor, toilet bowl lifted off floor, biscuits on first night but none on next two days. Wet towels not replaced. Had to use bath mat to wipe up wet floor but never replaced. Very quiet. Pub over bridge does good deals at night.

Smelly carpets, wash basin was leaking, water from the shower was coming out of the drain in the bathroom. Such a terrible experience and a complete waste of money.

The shower leaked onto the floor of the bathroom and then into the hallway. The toilet gurgled and nearly overflowed each time it was flushed and the shower head dripped most of the night.
