One nights stay whilst attending a birthday party in Cobham
Pros:

Conveniently located & appreciated the free parking.

Cons:

Decor was very dated & tired looking. One of the wall lights flickered when switched on which was quickly switched back off in room 1.

Fine if you just need a bed for the night but nothing more.
Pros:

Bed was comfortable and location was good for the event I was attending. Price fair-ish. Parking plentiful.

Cons:

Completely appalling communication, phone number does not work (called >20 times) probably as there is no receptionist. 8 or so messages sent via email or booking.com not read or replied to. I wanted to see if I could arrange early check in. Request finally responded to after automatic confirmation given and cancellation period passed, saying early check in not possible….really poor communication.

Room extremely old and tired, cross between a care home and a sixth form centre…..

Overall really good value for money, would come back agian.
Pros:

Liked the fact that we didn’t have to interact with staff to check in and check out. They provided hair dryer, clean towels, shampoo and body wash gel.

Cons:

The location of the lodge we got lost, I didn’t know that we’d have to enter the horse racing site. On the GPS it only shows a road that was gated and was not able to enter that way. The rooms were good but found a dead fly on the window sill, there was no hot water in the shower or tap water, but it was a heatwave at the time so I’m not complaining. Another thing they could improve on is that they could keep a vending machine in the lobby area with snacks drinks water. Because the kitchen is closed at night and I didn’t know where to find water apart from go all the way back into town to buy water.

Great. Met friends for drinks and also dinner in Esher so could wal
Pros:

It is what it is. Clean comfortable free parking and centrally located. No frills but good value for money.

Cons:

A shaving mirror would be nice.
I prefer a shower as getting in and out of a bath at my age is not easy as slipping or falling is an issue.
