Guests say
Jalan End is a well-received lodge with guests praising its comfort, well-equipped facilities, and the surrounding wildlife. The lodge's location is appreciated for its convenience and the peaceful environment it offers. While some guests encountered issues with cleanliness and maintenance, these were not universal experiences. The property seems to provide a cosy and enjoyable stay for most visitors.
Reviews on cleanliness are mixed, with several guests finding the lodge spotless, while others reported issues with dog hair, dirty cupboards, and high-level cobwebs. The negative comments suggest room for improvement in cleaning standards.
The lodge's location is generally well-regarded, with guests appreciating the easy access to local areas and the convenience of being just off the A1. However, some noted road noise and the distance from certain villages as drawbacks.
Comfort is highlighted positively, with guests enjoying the cosy atmosphere and the lodge's amenities. Some concerns were raised about mattress quality and seating arrangements, but overall, the lodge is considered comfortable.
Facilities are mostly praised for being well-equipped and modern. However, there are several reports of maintenance issues such as broken showers, unusable kettles, and heating problems, which affect the score.
While guests have mentioned treats and the provision of items like dog poo bags, there is not enough consistent information on thoughtful gestures or gifts to accurately score this category. It should be noted that such amenities are subject to change and not guaranteed.
