Bed rolled together into the middle. No aircon unit just a fan and a window which couldn’t open fully due to security. Tv reception was awful. Other than that I guess you get what you pay for

I had a basic room so was accepting of the "basic" conditions. It was very clean, however several things could have been improved. the sheets looked a slight grey instead of crisp bright white. Throw over was very flat and needed replacing. Facilties available satisfactory. The kettle kept overloading the multi plug. Taps in the wash basin were loose. No plug for the bath tub. Carpet looked a little stained. When I looked out the window the exterior could do with a wash.
Great location right by the lake. Clean and just what was advertised. Pool was good for the kids. Small, but they just needed to cool down. The spa was also a hit with the kids. Comfortable beds. Easy walk into town. You can eat and drink at the social club next store which is great. Or walk less than 5 minutes down the road for more options.
I didn't like anything about the property - there was no room to put a suitcase or hang clothes - the plastic kettle tainted the water so that tea and or coffee tasted revolting - and when you opened the bathroom door the musty smell was most unpleasant.
The room was nice, but unfortunately there was a loud noise directly outside it. It seems like it was the air conditioning unit that keep timing all night and interrupting us sleep for this reason I’ve got such a low review.
