There was absolutely no problems.

Reviewed Dec 18, 2025The hosts were amazing! Breakfast was great! The location is super close to the SunBet Arena, so if you're attending a concert, this is your go-to place. I can't emphasize more how amazing Petra was, she was so welcoming and so kind. The TV is a smart TV, so you can log into your Netflix account and watch your own stuff.
The room was a bit stuffy, and the fleece on the bed had some per hair on it. And we took Luke warm/ almost cold showers cos the water wasn't hot enough. But still, these points don't take away anything from the experience.

There was a miscommunication on the late check out that was confirmed, looked like the host was not informed and expected us to pay extra for late check out, though we did not pay. We had to leave before the time we had agreed with booking.com.

Reviewed Mar 24, 2025Location is easy if you have a concert. It's perfect for a night and the ladies keeping it are extremely kind. Home made breakfast too.
To be clear you don't go in this lodge for the view. It's the perfect location to sleep a night but there is no space in the lodge itself to move around, you just have your room. But we knew it beforehand and so wasn't annoyed by that but for people travelling who want a room with a view it might be an issue.
