Negative Reviews
negative:
Food is not overly fancy
While not exactly complaining about the standard of food, some guests staying here have said that the food is fairly bog-standard, albeit competitively priced.
negative:
Simply decorated rooms
Even though the rooms are not advertised as being in any way ‘boutique' in nature, some guests would have liked to have cupboards and drawers in their rooms. This would have helped their stay be a little bit more comfortable.
negative:
No housekeeping service
This traditional bed and breakfast accommodation offers no housekeeping service for the duration of your stay. As such, you will return to your room to find it as you left it. If you like to come back to a clean and tidy room when you have a night away, perhaps this accommodation will not suit you.
