The state of the room we stayed in was not represented in any photos. The laundry was bleak and mostly broken and the band list stuck on the wall all made a bad first impression.

Very clean older property. Great value

Very clean and the proprietors were exceptionally helpful and friendly. The property is older and it shows, but good value for the money. We appreciated the reasonably priced laundry facilities on property and the down pillows on the bed!

Tired and unloved

The room had the facilities promised, but it's a tired shadow of what it could be. Everything needed cleaning and maintenance. We washed up and I tightened the handles on the saucepans BEFORE cooking. The curtains were torn and hung on too-few runners. I rehung them before we went to sleep to stop light coming in.
