Wonderful Stay
really good sausages hot food helpful staff comfortable stay
The breakfast offered excellent choices. The sausages tasted really good, a highlight. The food on the buffet remained hot, never drying out, which I appreciated. All the staff members were helpful. I will consider returning here.
I found that the room was somewhat cold. I think management should find a solution for the temperature issue.

Acceptable Stay with Some Issues
dated room loud music
Our stay had some problems. The room was quite dated and clearly needed redecorating. our room was right above a function room, so loud music continued past midnight. We were not informed about that possibility when we booked our stay.

awesome family trip!
friendly staff great location super clean room
i stayed there with my family for a few nights. the staff was super friendly and helpful, thats a big plus for me. the location was great as it was close to emerald park. the room was super clean, i mean really clean, and the pool was a hit with my daughter.
the games room was a bit of a letdown. the air hockey table didnt work and the receptionist didn't seem to care much when i reported it.
