Not exactly what we were expecting
Pros:

Breakfast was ok

Cons:

The cleanliness of the rooms, cobwebs all along the walls and ceiling, the room we were allocated was only set up for one person although there were 2 of us so we had to go and get a towel, cup, glass and tea/coffee from reception.
The plumbing/drainage in the room was horrendous, they are obviously connected to a macerator which was constantly going all night and when next door was using their bathroom we could hear the noise of it from theirs.
There was a gap round the outside door.

Pros:

Beautiful place, location and food. Clean and fresh rooms with ample facilities in room's
Great budget hotel

Cons:

Outside impression was poor with weeds on all borders and between slabs in children's play area.
Outside fencing needs a good spruce up.
Had a great stay but felt the owners were letting themselves down.

Cons:

Couldn’t get into the first room we were given so changed. Had to get more towels, mug, remote control. Shower didn’t work. Strange rumbling noise in room every 30 seconds at all times.
