    Very spartan. Garden and grounds quite rough. Not much finesse.

    Nice bedding. Clean room.

    No iron was available in the room.I had to go to the laundry room that was busy,I had to return after a few minutes.Perhaps consider two laundry rooms.

    Staff were very friendly.The room was clean.

    Too many flies. We even saw a roach in our room.

    Despite the waiter not being able to remember our order numbers, the breakfast was enjoyable. Ben was very friendly and went out of his way to help us. I didn't see any spiders in my room which is great!

    First day/ night we were unable to use the shower or toilet.Room 7 had plumbing issues- shower was blocked, toilet was blocked, flush toilet it was coming into the shower. ...staff moved us to another room for second night. It would be nice to have a safe in room for our personal belongings.

    Staff were accommodating. My family and I only stay at Farquhar...I love their location

    BEAUTIFUL but the staff need more knowledge of the proper breakfast and have fruits on display

    They should have put the door hence you can not be free helping yourself while the other person is there in the mail room. They should have the menu in the room so you do not have to be asking around regarding the breakfast or dinner. The breakfast is too limited when it comes to the options available

    The bathroom setup was beautiful, big shower and clean linen

    The wooden floors are quite noisey, so it is disturbing. Since you can hear it through the walls whe someone is walking in the next room.

    That there was electric blankets on the bed since it was quite cold.
