### Lakeview Hotel Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Immaculately Clean and comfortable. Despite the busy hotel adjacent, we had a quiet and cosy stay. Upgrade to King room was well worth it.The only negative was there is not really any dedicated parking spaces for the accommodation. We went out a couple of times and struggled to get safe parking near our room upon return due to hotel dining being incredibly busy. Food in restaurant was affordable and great quality. Only comment here is limited options for dairy/ gluten intolerance which is why we only dined in once. Overall, great place to stay and would book here again on next trip. Highly recommended."
