"People in the front office are very nice. The accommodation I had, has a very low toilet. Anyone with bad knees or an elderly person has a difficult time getting up again. A grab bar next to toilet would be very helpful and not very expensive to install. My room was quite small, the room my son was in was nice. Interesting that both rooms were the same price. Because of the location, next to the highway, traffic noise is a problem at night. My main problem was the height of the toilet, the rest was manageable."

"Stayed here with family for a short vacation to Goldbug. Easy check in. Surface clean. Lovely laundry accommodations. Marked it low on cleanliness due to a large amount of spiders and webs as well as dead bugs. Could be just because it's the end of summer but a deep clean would have been appreciated.Kitchen is well equipped and the towels, blankets, bedding lovely clean!The check-in information said that there was milk and eggs in the refrigerator as well as a brownie mix but we did not have that on our visit. Not sure if the paperwork needs to be updated. Host left a variety of tasty treats that were very well appreciated. We really did love our visit."
