Pros:

Check in was great and we were lucky enough to get a ground floor room. The property is definitely showing its age and needs some work. The view of the tidal bore was magical.

Pros:

My stay was fine. The room was clean and comfortable. The cable was very good. There was hot water. It was affordable. These are all things that were most important to me.
Some inconvenience are there are wooden stairs to the second floor and I was under them so i heard some heavy footed workman going up and down. Thankfully it was quiet in the evening. Its a little out of the way but many food choices were available within a few km.
The staff have unusual hours so you drop your key off in a letter box. Its old fashioned but it works.
I'd stay there again if i was in town.
