Very good location and beautiful vue to the lack. Breakfast is very, very basic . Big downside, time for breakfast (from 8 to 9) which is quite inconvenient if you are relaxing on holidays, and specially when there are no other places close by. Staff is friendly and helpful.

The price does not aling with the hotrl. Overall, Dirty, run-down, smells like mould, the incense burning in the common area helps reduce the smell but made our clothing smell like incense. It was priced as a 5 star hotel, but its a one star. The staff are friendly.

The room was extremely cramped and very poorly maintained, including but not limited to a bad leak through the ceiling from the shower in the room above into our shower stall. Although the staff were pleasant and the location was convenient I would not recommend it and would never return to stay.

Considering the price of the room, this place was a huge let down. Rooms were outdated with hairs in the bed and an old shampoo bottle left in the shower from a previous guest. Bed was uncomfortable. Staff was fine but not overly helpful. Location is the only saving grace. Horrible value for what you pay.

The only good thing about this hotel was the view from the window. No showered curtain & no hand soap in bathroom. Decided to have a meal in restaurant, very poor evening meal, , the lasagne was still cold possibly frozen. The hotel & meal extremely overpriced. Will not stay again.

We didn’t have breakfast so can’t comment on that. We had evening dinner which was very nice. Staff were friendly and helpful. It was clean but just needs a good update, which is a shame as the hotel was a great stop off for us. The bathroom door was very small to get through and the bed was a small double. All in all a good stay.

The property is set in a stunning location. Our room left a little to be desired though. Described as a compact twin room it was really that. The beds were clean and comfortable. The bathroom acceptable. We were disappointed with the overall feel of the room. Wallpaper was peeling on the walls, the TV was crooked and just about holding on to it's wall hanging. For GBP100 we felt it was not value for money.
