Fair location. Everything here is very basic. from the rooms to the breakfast. no soap or complimentaries (except loo roll) mouldy shower which works intermittently, all rooms have bunk-beds (so the reception told us) but this isn't advertised. we booked a triple room, and got a cramped room with 3 bunk-beds. whole hotel is no smoking (not advertised) including garden area (which is out-of-bounds anyway) and they threaten to fine you for it. sorry, but avoid like the plague.Anonymous

Location was good We booked a three person room but they gave us a room with seven beds instead and even though other people weren't in the room, it was an extremely awkward set up. the stairs were miserable.. an absolute hike every time we went to our room or left. overall, not a hotel by any means, most certainly a hostel.

The hotel staff were really helpfulMy only complaint would be the state of the room. the pictures on your site were not a fair appraisal (compared to our room). the room was grotty and there were staines on everything! the blinds were beyond repair (important in a ground floor room) and the bathroom had the remains of a broken light fitting and a cable hanging from the ceiling and there was a kitchen with no cutlery, crockery or anything needed for cooking....what was the point? it was about right for the money, but it was a shame. it could be a really nice little hotel with some money spent on it.
