This motel has been renovated in recent years. The bathroom had a good sized shower. A spa in the room, a kitchenette. Balcony. There are lake views. Car parking is under the rooms and some are covered. We would certainly stay here again. Thanks.

Good size for family
Rooms were spacious and comfortable, lots of room for a portacot if needed. bathroom is basic and minimal and the lounge/kitchen area was a great fit for family time. The parking is a bit awkward, but right outside rhe room. Overall i would recommend

The bed was comfortable and the overall unit was lovely and clean. The pillows were not particularly great but okay for one night. I think more instructions on how to work the heat pump would be good for those who don't have one at home but was pleased with my last minute booking.

After a long day traveling I was looking forward to a hot spa bath unfortunately there was an issue with the hot water. I had a lukewarm shower. I was pretty disappointed. Other than that the bed was comfortable.
