We had a quick overnight stay as we were travelling south. The room was clean and well appointed. Plenty of hot water and the location close to the Jolly Good Fellows restaurant and bar was perfect for dinner. The staff were very engaging yet gave us a level of privacy.

Room needs a good clean, dust on light switches, light fixtures etc, established cobwebs in kitchen and bathroom and broken toilet roll holder and shower height adjuster. Great view, nice to get generous sized milk, good location, but room does need some maintenance.

We were expecting something a little bit classier and cleaner than what we found... Also expected to see a view of the lake from the room as photos indicated that.. Very disappointed for the price we paid.
