Very clean older property. Great value

Very clean and the proprietors were exceptionally helpful and friendly. The property is older and it shows, but good value for the money. We appreciated the reasonably priced laundry facilities on property and the down pillows on the bed!

Tired and unloved

The room had the facilities promised, but it's a tired shadow of what it could be. Everything needed cleaning and maintenance. We washed up and I tightened the handles on the saucepans BEFORE cooking. The curtains were torn and hung on too-few runners. I rehung them before we went to sleep to stop light coming in.

Arrived on Thursday 6th Feb late afternoon and was greeted by a man who could not speak much English, I tried to pay but he didnt understand and then after checking my Company Credit card found it had been charged through the booking platform which is quite inconvienient. The decor of the Unit was very dated and you could have timewarped back to the 70's, on a positive note, unit was clean and tidy, bed was comfortable, each unit had netflix but was sharing the same account.

Ideal for what I wanted, clearer signage on office needed and explanation on what to do at check out. No one atvthe desk and as a foreign visitor I wasn’t able to phone son left key in room (as that’s where it was when I arrived) and hopes for the best. Sofa uncomfortable but rest of rooms were perfect and I would recommend to any travellers
