Quality Hotel Lakeside
We stayed in a family room and it had great space. We enjoyed that it had a back door so the car could be parked quite close. The playground across the road was excellent so the location of the hotel was perfect with our kids

My room was lovely and clean, staff friendly and helpful. My only slight complaint is the decor/paint work could do with refresh. I do understand that it is a heritage property and I appreciated all the hisyory.
