Parking is onsight but shared with the leisure center, which is very busy. The room was on the other side of the property which was not convenient at all. I was asked about adding the breakfast to my room, which I did not; however, I was not informed about use of any amenities. Front desk not helpful or friendly upon arrival. The housekeeping staff were nice.

This hotel is not a 4-star hotel as listed. I would rate it as a 2-star hotel. First of all, the room was too small. There was no room to walk around. No space to put your suit cases or luggage. There was no closet to hang up your clothes. The floors were dirty with stains. No tissue provided. This was the first hotel out of hundreds I have booked that doesn't provided tissue . Over all very disappointing experiences. Oh, and the noise at night was the worst. There was construction noises going on all night, therefore I didn't get any sleep. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Very nice quiet spot to stay. The goats seem fat and happy. Very friendly also. Nobody was in the reception office however we were very early for our check in. Found someone nearby and they were very helpful in getting us settled in. Not far from Middleton which was nice. Would definitely stay there again. Also, if you're a taller individual, mind the doorways. They were probably built when folks were much shorter.
