- Sala Vateitei (10/5): -
- Kay (8/5): - The staff were friendly, it was good pub food, nice quiet location. There wasn't an exhaust fan in the bathroom, there was a stain on the sheet, had to ask the cleaner for a fresh towel and supplies on 4th day
- David (4/5): Bested to call when booking and make sure the facilities are open - Clean rooms When booking made via website(booking.com)we were not informed that the tavern was closed and dinner only was available by room service. Pool was not clean. This was not ideal after travelling 650km on a hot day with kids in the car.
- Deborah (9/5): Lovely clean and spacious room, great meals - Friendly staff helped us with a spare phone charger when we left ours home, clean and very comfortable room, fridge, good bathroom. Well priced meals in restaurant. No microwave or toaster.

Aircon remote was very hard to use but got it in the end
- Kristy (10/5): 10/10 will definitely be staying here with my dog, Ben, again. - I was incredibly happy with my room, especially after a tiny hiccup because i had special requirements that staff and manager went out of their way to accommodate.
