Absolutely hate cold showers. Won't stay here again.
Pros:

good location

Cons:

Cold to luke warm shower both nights. Room was very small. Usual noise you expect with a pub stay, but not the low price. We could have stayed in a motel without the extra noise of a pub for less. We had to turn sideways to brush pass each other in the room.

Location was lovely directly across from the lake with a spectacular sunset at night which we could look at from our own deck outside of our room.
