"The accommodation was clean and tidy overall. However, there were several issues that affected our stay. The mirror was broken and had been taped up. The playroom was not as shown in the photos, and several of the items were broken or damaged. The garden chairs were also broken and not suitable for use. The internet connection in our room was very poor, which was also inconvenient during our stay. Overall, while the accommodation was clean, the condition of several facilities and the poor internet connection need improvement."

"Our stay here was absolutely amazing!! The owners were really nice and accommodating. We stayed for about four days, and the owner kindly offered us additional coffee and tea. They were also very accommodating when we ran out of paper towels and even offered room service while we were out. The kitchen was well equipped with utensils, plates, pots, and everything we needed during our stay. The towel given at the motel were also very convenient when going to the spring. The location was great, as it was nearby and offered a wonderful view outside. Overall, our experience was wonderful, and we would definitely come back again with our family. Highly recommended!"
