Staff at the hotel were very good - two young women were outstanding, the receptionist and the young woman managing the restaurant. Their capacity for work was impressive. Had a good meal at the restaurant and had a gluten allergy catered for.

Disliked: Amenities
The hotel served our needs well as trekkers well, with an early breakfast, good location for car journey to mountains. The property is a bit run down and needs a lot of investment. Fan in our bathroom did not work nor did the towel rail (or perhaps it was just us not being able to dind the right buttons). Staff were very good, and the owners should count themselves lucky that they have such charming people.

Noisy roon due to bar & restaurant right above.

The hotel looked very nice ans clean as well as the rooms. However the room we were given was right below the bar and restaurant. Which meant the constant banging and moving of funiture and general loud noise. It went on until 1am and re started again at 5am. We were situated on 2nd floor. Its a nice hotel and room but we really did not sleep all night due to the constant banging noise.

Nice atmosphere. Staff friendly. Problems: mattresses very hard. Tub hot water gets stuck on because the heat makes the fixture expand. Learned to cool it with cold water from the sink to be able to turn it off.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS !! TERRIBLE

Ok here we go! 1. Room was smelt of damp and mould ! 2. Room and toilet area was first with red bacteria from water taps and hairs in bath sink and bed! 3. The shower gels and soaps were dirty with used dried shampoo and shower gel on them! 4. The noise room doors are not noise proof and you can hear every movement in the corridor outside ! 5. The restaurant is a total and utter disgrace, cold bacon, cold beans, cold sausages and cold black pudding ! 6. The staff look dirty and the uniforms are not presentable or acceptable ! 7. NO FIRE EMERGENCY PLAN IN ROOM ALARMING!! Absolute embarrassment I will never ever stay at a MGM hotel again especially this dump!
