Lakeside Inn Illawarra

Room was clean, but not soundproof. Shower was ok, but mixer is wobbly.

Great location, and super clean and tidy rooms. The staff were wonderful

The room was extremely basic. Not only did it not have a couch to sit on, it didn’t even have a single couch seat. And although I paid extra for a room with a lake view or partial lake view, I can’t remember which, you could only see a bit of the water if you stood in a particular spot in the room and it was through a barred window. You couldn’t see the water if you were laying in bed or sitting anywhere as the beds were around the corner from the barred window. And if a large car was parked in front of the window, you could hardly see the water at all. Also, there was only one bed side table even though there was a king bed and a single bed. So three people are supposed to use the one bedside table. Even though there was room for another one. There was also no cupboard to hang clothes in. Instead, there were hooks on the wall.. The toilet roll holder is slanted and I guess they don’t want to straighten it. The result is that the toilet roll is constantly falling on the ground so I had to keep it on the vanity. I was disappointing that the fridge didn’t have a freezer component. Some of the clientele seemed extremely dodgy.. Other than that, the room was very clean and spacious enough and the bathroom was updated and also clean. The after hours number also worked well. It was so good to have You Tube easily accessible on the tv. The restaurant has surprisingly tasty food and their buffet breakfast is hot and decent.

Disappointed. Cramped exit to verandah which overlooked junk below and just below sight level. Empty bottle and can still in vorner of verandah - did anyone even clean? look? 44

Good
