Rated 5 out of 5.
Absolutely fantastic 5 star building but the quality of food was very poor, visiting and seeing what was offered was a shock to me. The staff had to be called numerous times when my brother in law was very unwell. I am very disappointed as I would be on the phone trying to calm him due to nobody attending to him.
My in-laws are very well fed and looked after in their spacious and clean side by side rooms. We were very lucky to have this option for them.
I stayed at John Hood Terrace for one month and everything was perfect. Absolutely everyone was so kind and caring and the facilities are amazing and very comfortable. The food was delicious and kitchen staff were fantastic. Definitely 5 stars from me and I very much hope to be back soon as I miss everyone!
Beautiful and well fitted facility.
