This was the most disgusting place on earth. Do NOT stay here. My bed was held together by a protruding screwdriver. NO SMOKE ALARM. DRUG pipes in a cupboard - one smashed to pieces, Bathroom fan was falling from ceiling, one lock on the filthy door. Filth on the floors and counter/table tops, opened sachets of coffee provided with newer ones, the gardens unkempt even a rusty chair in with the fish pond, VERY noisy, no customer service, Dirty bbq provided but nothing to cook with and no plates/cutlery so no point cooking - seriously a disgrace and I'll be reporting higher when I get home. It should not be allowed to be open. A bus load of kids and noisy women arrived and it took forever for them to be roomed - they hung around outside my room and I couldn't hear myself think. Not organised, no welcome. FERAL.

Despite an obvious effort to re-tile or at least grout the bathroom, the craftsmanship was extremely poor. The shower screen needs replacing along with the tap and shower head where water came out in odd directions. The curtains were threadbare and had rips in them. However the kids enjoyed the pool table and table tennis in the games room.

Smelly room with wet carpet
As soon as we walked into the room we were greeted with a terrible smell that seemed to be stuck to the rooms inner soul. When we turned on the bathroom light / fan , the fan was rattling so loud it would keep a hibernating brown bear awake all winter. Additonaly, there was a huge wet patch on the floor whcih made us keep out shoes on the whole time. May have only been this room but will definitely never stay there again for the price we paid.

The main areas of the property were clean and tidy. The rooms were a bit dated and showing their age. Bathroom was decent but a bit tired. The place was quiet and bed was comfortable enough but pillows may as well have been a rolled up t-shirt. There were no extra pillows or blankets in the room and no one on reception when we got in to get some more. Not a bad place for a night if you just want somewhere to sleep but maybe byo pillow.

Property was tired needs an update .Fridge was leaking there was a fan in front of it to dry out the moisture. Room should have been offline for the night. I have worked in the motel industry for 35 years yes it was a few years ago but I feel I can express an opinion.

The place was cheap and easily accessible. that was about it. There was no coffee in the room (tea yes, but we don't drink tea). the Pool was off limits due to being green (The whole reason we chose to stay there besides it being cheap, was for the pool) and unclean. there was no breakfast or food being served.
