Rooms are basic but it was what we wanted. Bed was very nice to sleep in and there was no noise from other units. Units are well off the road so no noise there either. Having units so far from the road makes parking so much safer for your car overnight.

The staff did their best to. Ensure our room was as comfortable as possible. I can see the place will look amazing once all renovations are complete. ##### Danielle Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Anthony 27 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The Lodge was 5 mins drive within all Supermarkets and Restaurants.

No table or lounge type chairs. Bathroom hand basin was very damaged. Bathroom fan could not be turned off so ran all day/night. Holes in walls and covered with sticky paper. Beds were comfortable and shower was good. I would not ever stay here again. Cost us $180.00 per night for three adults which would have been ok if the unit had been at an acceptable level condition.!!! ##### Peter Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rosalien 27 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Just Amazing 👏 Fron the time we pulled up to book in we were greeted with smiles and the mist friendliest staff.
