The lodge was ideal for our needs - convenient and close to the parks we needed to go to for the cricket tournament we were there for and close enough to shops and takeaways. The beds were comfortable, and the shower head and water pressure were very good. Our room was cleaned every day and the staff was polite and friendly.
Easy check in, clean,tidy,friendly and close to shops

The amenities were looking a little tired. The playground didnt look very safe although the trampine and pool seemed ok. You could tell they were doing things up ie new beds fridge and bathroom but the kitchen cabinets made the place looked dated. The wifi was a bit patchy and it was a bit noisey with the upstairs. The reception is at the back of the facility around the corner. Great eating places nearby.
The hosts were both really nice and friendly. Room had everything I needed and was comfortable. Apart from a small amount of traffic noise, it was quiet.
The complimentary cookies and chocolates were a nice touch. Would stay there again.
Loved loved the owner! She was super friendly and very welcoming, she even gave my kids some gifts on christmas morning 😁 the laundry is good to, use the washing machine for free and get a token for the dryer or hang your clothes on the line. The pool was clean and so nice to swim in. I loved our stay 🤗 thankyou so much!!!

Liked: Cleanliness
Good location , close to the shops , shopping centers , children's playground and many more
Advertised free wifi and when you check in they only give certain gb to use. It wasn't enough for my kids to watch their cartoon
The room was spacious, very clean and the amount of crockery was amazing. Very well stocked. Staff were very helpful with sorting out a TV issue and plenty of laundry supplies.
.
I liked the fact that it was nice and quiet even though right next to the main road. The lady in the reception was nice and friendly. A small thing but there was no salt available. Otherwise, everything was fine and will go again. Have been there before. Convenient to the hospital which is where I was going to be attending as a patient.
Very old room needs up upgrade. New owner much better last guy. Pillow and bed not need upgrade. Yes Sky Tv best part. Shower water poor. Safe big problem because area.
The washroom has been recently renovated and it is clean and bright. Overall the experience is pleasing. The location is convenient too. Definitely will visit again if we come to Hastings again.
