Easy and friendly check-in, room tidy but getting dated. Why, when there are not many customers, do you put people next door? I thought it would be better to spread everyone out.

Close to Blue Lake and saw a wonderful sunrise. I didn’t realize that the reception closes at 8pm, so I was happy to receive a phone call at 7 to confirm my arrival time.

The warm & friendly welcome at reception and the quiet location of the room were all bonuses. Lovely hot shower, good quality kitchen crockery and glassware and the small dining area all added to the comfort of the room.

Overall, very good. Great service and room had everything that was required. Was slightly disappointed in the size of the room a bit small for my liking and the bathroom was very tight. Also had a very good view from the room but this was tainted by the window needing a good clean.
