Happy overall, would stay again :-)
Pros:

The room was excellent. We requested a lake view and was very grateful to have it. Bed was comfortable, everything was clean. It was nice and warm too, even though it was the middle of winter.

Cons:

The bathroom was just too small. And the breakfast had a small selection.

Weekend at Sudima
Pros:

The restaurant was nice, the lobby was nice and thankful for the team abke to give us a ground floor unit as my nephew was in a wheelchair. Much appreciated.

Cons:

Only negative thing was the room wasnt tidied or fresh towels until we asked. We were out most of the day arriving back in the afternoon and the room wasnt tidied. Everything else was fine.

Great location but noisy.
Pros:

Friendly staff, great location next to the Polynesian Spa, good sized room, heating, TV.

Cons:

Very noisy road out the back and from coaches with their engines running. I felt that I was being bitten in the bed and woke up itching.
