Very ordinary, would not recommend
Pros:

There was no breakfast and the only thing I liked about the place was its location . The shower was nice and hot

Cons:

Should have been upfront and honest about a bistro and eatery. The place was dirty along with plates and bowls

Unless big improvement I would not stay there again.
Pros:

Unit was clean and friendly staff.

Cons:

The bed was very bad and sunken in the middle. The room AC was not turned on until we got there and outside temp was already 42. Inside the room the little AC until could not cool the room down until the next day which made it for a very hot and uncomfortable night. Only 1 coffee cup for the family room same with other kitchen items. We chose this place as it had a resturant, bar but when we got there they had been closed for a long time. The site photos and distription is very misleading and the place is quite run down. Not a pleasent stay at all.

Very Disappointing
Pros:

Looking in my rear view mirror as I left the establishment

Cons:

No restaurant facilities as advertised, booked for a deluxe room however was given a standard room with the owner claiming it was the only clean room available.

Pros:

I got there so late - been a huge and horrible drive and the lovely staff member on shift was waiting for me, didnt even make me get out of the car and just walked infront of the car, led me to the room and told me how to check out. It was so easy, so punctual and so appreciated. The cabin was tidy, bed was comfy and the only way this place could be better is if it was dog friendly so I could stay here more often.

The room was clean, tidy and had all we needed for a short stay. Loved the pool. Will stay again.
Pros:

Service by the manager was extremely friendly and efficient despite the fact that she had little assistance from anyone else. The pool was very clean and lovely and warm. The toilets near the pool was also very clean.

Pros:

Location, size ok

Cons:

Matress terrible, left 2 days early but can't get refund for the days we did not stay. Only stayed that long as had paid via online when booking and no refund available. Not very clean. Just enough done to not be considered unstayable.

Horrible. Stranded without accomodation, middle of no where, travelled 15hrs by car with 2kids :(
Pros:

Nothing. There was no one at the property to check us in, so I paid for a place I couldnt stay at

Cons:

The fact that there was no way to gain access to the accomodation. We were left stranded. The booking was prepaid for and no option to cancel
