Lovely place to stay, location was perfect!
Pros:

The location was perfect, really central, very easy to access the property with the codes. Communication with staff was very easy and quick!

Cons:

We booked a room with a bath but I didn’t realise it was a bath only, no shower, my fault!!

I would be reluctant to book this hotel again. Given the price of approximately £160 poor value
Pros:

Comfort of bed

Cons:

Room Size was very small and in particular the bathroom/toilet area. Inadequate bath/shower facilities,( tap extension shower hose-not fixed base type, extremely limited room to stand in bath for showering purposes due to Sloping roof over half of bath area, no shower curtain or fitted screen, unable to open windows, hotel totally unmanned (entry by code only though a contact number for off site staff was provided), Limited off site parking

House with the history
Pros:

Nice small house with retro vibe on every step. I like the interier so much. The bathroom was very clean and big. The location is prefect for exploring the small town.

Cons:

I din't like that we need extra "code" for the bathroom entry. The bathrom is next door so it is very close to the room and was not the problem at all. Only if you forget code in the middle of the night ;)

Nice place, beautiful village. Don’t stay during early May.
Pros:

The room is great. Tub in the room is a cool touch, make sure you’re ok bathing in front of whomever you’re traveling with! Comfortable bed.

Cons:

We found out that the dates we stayed were during a gypsy festival! And all bars and restaurants close. It would have been nice to be informed of this beforehand. We had to leave town for food and pubs. Which made it a poor choice and we would have stayed elsewhere. The host should have mentioned this.

Massa car pel que ofereix
Pros:

El lavabo, malgrat estar a fora, és molt gran. Matalàs còmode i la llet que ofereixen és un plus.

Cons:

Habitació MOLT petita sense espai per obrir la maleta. No hi ha aparcament gratuït. Lavabo és a fora de l'habitació, al passadís.

Cozy!
Pros:

私たちのツインルームは、バスルームが廊下の外にあるとのことで心配だったのですが、実際4日滞在すると、快適でした。部屋もスーツケースが開けないくらいの狭さだったものの、cozyでベッドも寝心地よかったです。バスタブがあったのが嬉しかった。清潔でした。洗濯物も乾きやすい暖房システムてした。

Cons:

狭さんだけ。スーツケース開けないほど。でも工夫して心地よ軍艦島過ごせた。騒音もなし。

Great stay.
Pros:

Great location, right in the middle of town. The room was very clean. The bathroom was spacious, and had a good shower.

Cons:

The mattresses should be replaced. While still comfortable, the matresses are sufficiently worn that you can feel some springs.
