Do not stay here, unless you want to stay at a Backpackers hostel/lodge. This isn't a hotel, but is charging hotel money (we booked 6 months ahead). No privacy, paper-thin walls (snoring first night, early start noise 2nd night), tea/coffee - no milk, small fridge, no housekeeping, no other stuff. Balcony is shared with 3 other "Lake View Rooms" so, no privacy. View of the lake mostly obscured by large trees and long veranda roof, but a lovely lake it is! It is a 5-min walk to town centre.
So, not a hotel then!
Zoomed in pic - seaplanes loud, but enjoyable, not frequent

Very well laid out communal cooking, dining and lounge areas. Perfect place for affordable accommodation that is across from the lake and minutes from the town centre. This is the perfect place for young adults upwards, they clearly state no young children. My private ensuite room was very clean and comfortable with lake views and a blacony area. The only thing about my room is they need to fix the front facing window so you can open it especially as the weather warms up

On first arriving you think you’ve checked in to a backpackers, there’s multiple options at this property and each one is satisfactory for the price, we loved our room which was Greenstone room overlooked the lake and was very comfortable, for the price compared to other properties on Lakeside 10 out of 10.

We didnt realize when we booked here that it was also a backpackers property. We were impressed with the thought that had gone into the property. There was a lovely big communal kitchen for everyone to use, a lounge for people to sit in if they wanted to and our rooms were very comfortable and quiet. Was very impressed with the set up

Ok property but not better than others

Decent property, close to everything. Tv in room required a special app to use which we didn't have so no tv for two nights. Really, how expensive is basic cable? The room was expensive for what we got.
