Great location for us

Laurie the owner was lovely. I phoned ahead to advise we were running late & it wasn’t a problem. On arrival we chatted with Laurie for about 1/2 hr - great communication and quite a lot in common with us. Lots of plans to change how the venue and how it is used. On approach the accommodation looks in need of tlc but it’s happening. Our room was very comfortable and had all we needed for a nights stay.

The property is convenient if you were attending a function at the premises. The room could benefit from a refurbishment. The tiny ensuite ceiling needed painting. It had brown stains and mould. There were patches on the walls in the bedroom. All walls needed painting. There were strips of forimca off the cabinetry.

Pictures of Norwood not up to expectation

The advertising depict a clean, modern well run conference centre and it's nothing like it. Totally run down premisses. The premises are used for housing permanent residents, that come across like being on the welfare system. This meant that there was music all night long and people coming and going. Picture missing off the wall. Garden not keep. Rooms not clean, lots of hair on the floor in the bathroom.

A 3 night stay.

Bed was clean and fresh. It is a case of you get what you pay for. The owner was helpful and friendly. Towels need replacing. Bathroom is only big enough for one person. Badly in need of renovations which l believe will be addressed. Noisy neighbours made sleep impossible on the last night.
