"Relaxation Mode engaged"

8.0

Everything! This is the 2nd time I've stayed here and it's become my place of choice. Had family out from the UK with me this time and they loved the place, found it very comfy with good water pressure in the shower

Some small luxuries could be added like a coffee machine but it's located really short walking distance to a really good coffee truck

It worked well for our needs - to share a room with my sister and bro-in-law but still have my own space and privacy

"Comfortable, functional room with a 20-25?minute walk into town."

8.0

We had room 11 - a Waterview large room with a microwave, kettle and French press. (FYI - we found that instant coffee was widely available). So we bought quality coffee for our extended trip. There were coin-operated laundry facilities and a small thermal pool that was relaxing. We were pleasantly surprised that they provided a little bath salts for the tub (we did not use).

In trying to think of something: There were comfortable chairs to sit at the pool when warm. But not a big deal, go in and out for a float. Last, it is not a modern facility so lower your expectations when it says luxury.

"Clean, comfortable family accommodation"

10.0

We had a lovely stay at the Baycrest Thermal Lodge. The family room is surprisingly spacious and the pull-out room divider is a very convenient feature for families with children who go to bed early. The kitchenette was reasonably well equipped and the beds comfortable. Cleaning was done to an exceptionally high standard.
