The room was basic. Mattress stained. It was out of season but disappointed that there was no one on reception for a lot of our stay. I think we was only ones in hotel.when we was going out Saturday morning there was nobody around and we had to ring number on website to get someone to come to reception. Didn't sleep well Friday night so decided to come home Saturday instead of staying at the hotel another day. ☚ī¸
