We were originally booked into the Monastery, but when we arrived we were given a room in the basement. We did not want to stay in the basement, the windows were high and small. I returned later to look at the rooms on the upper floors and would have been happy to stay in one of those.
We were offered a room at Leaside Manor, which we appreciated. Our stay at Leaside was very nice overall, however, the stairs and entrance from the parking lot was not ideal for us. We understand that it is an older property. The bathroom in the Parker Room is not ideal, the shower is very small, the lighting is poor. I could not use bathroom to dry my hair and do my makeup. The breaker tripped while I was drying my hair, I had to sit at the desk in the main area to dry my hair. The dryer cord was hardly long enough and kept falling out of the outlet. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay. Leaside is a charming place to stay, the bed was comfortable and we enjoyed the breakfast and conversation with other guests.
