Booked this hotel as last minute, I come to the island often to visit my dad so this was first time staying somewhere different. Set up more like a b&b than an actual hotel though. John the owner was lovely showed us to our room, and even made sure I knew the code to get back in through the main door. He made us breakfast each morning we were there too which was nice. Only thing id say, is that there was no tea bags or coffee / cups to go with the kettle in the room so had no use being there. Also there was a musty smell in the room. A little bit over priced for what you get. I’ve paid less for other hotels and it’s more modern and has plenty of extras like soaps shower gels tea coffee etc

The hotel is not very well appointed. There was no internet connection in the room. Breakfast was served in a 45 minute window. There were cobwebs in the bathroom and the bed bases were torn and unsightly. We arrived around 6.30 and the front door was locked. There was a kettle in the room with no cups and saucers, no milk, tea or coffee. We had to collect them from the dining area/ reception. Tea tasted awful as it appeared perfumed and not breakfast tea bags. Didn’t bother with breakfast as the whole experience put us off trying it.

overprice but underrated.

The bathroom door could not be locked from inside. There is no ventilation in the toilet so after finishing the business, the bad smell could not escape apart from the main window of the room. The hot water in the sink was not working.

You get what you pay for. Staff is super nice and friendly. Room not so great. Very out dated. Bathroom extremely outdated. Tv never worked at all. Breakfast was ok. Nothing to write home about but can’t really complain either. Served its purpose.

Stay was ok only because it was close to the Beach. Room was very old fashioned so was the building the room smelt of toilet and bath room needed some TLC spiders in the bathroom and room. Bed very uncomfortable with two single ones out together. Breakfast was nice but overall it needs a revamp needs seriously uodating.
