The ballroom was being renovated but it was still a wonderful place to visit with the brook running through it. I enjoyed the history of the place. The staff was amazing. The family owned diner was charming and had fabulous food.

6/10 Good

The room was lacking in cleanliness. Crumbs in the chairs, paint peeling off the bathroom walls. The view was spectacular though, the staff was friendly. The owner has done a lot of work to get this place cleaned up, but it still needs major improvements.

6/10 Good

Rooms are very basic, staff are friendly enough but you can tell even they know the place is rundown. I had some chicken wings and they were ok, the barmaid in the bar is really friendly but they closed early so we had one pint and then we were thrown out. The rooms are big but the corridors and the public areas really need a spruce up. Location is great, loads of car park space, apparently in peak season they are full. Our balcony overlooked the car park and freeway, nice !!!

8/10 Very good

The rooms were great inside…roomy, clean and with nice mango liquid soap, lotion, shampoo and conditioner. Also had a microwave, refrigerator, coffee maker which was nice. The balcony was spacious…view mostly of a building but could also see trees in the distance. The pavement needs to desperately be redone since huge potholes made it difficult to drive on. The guy who checked me in could have been a lot more friendly and welcoming since he was just so business like without a smile. Dogs next door barked a lot since owners were gone….i have dogs so didn’t bother me much. Also could hear walking and talking of others quite a bit. Nice, friendly cafe on premises. Didn’t visit the bar area but it looked interesting. Overall I would stay again if in the area…the price was very reasonable.

Overall it’s a great place for the price. The location, room, food and bar were good. The front desk worker was a little rough and not very intelligent for sure. Tough to get luggage into the room long walk.

What an absolute treat!! I booked this hotel because it was close to my friend’s house who I was coming to visit and it’s also advertised as pet friendly. Looking through the photos, I thought it looked nice and I was surprised that each guest room had a patio or balcony. When we arrived, the place was beautifully lit up and we could hear live music playing. Check in was very easy. We stayed for two nights and enjoyed every minute that we spent there. The 50’s diner was perfect for breakfast and the bar was perfect for a night cap. All the people that work there are very nice. We will return!!
