Great location for WHW, room décor & ensuite quite dated. Bed was comfy for good nights rest.
Pros:

The location was perfectly convenient for the WHW route. It was also a very nice natural environment, with mountain views.
The bar area was nice.

Cons:

Guinness, Fish & chips and Sky sports are all presented on the website, but none of these were available during our visit.

Kiváló szálláshely, finom ételekkel.
Pros:

Jól megközelíthető, egyértelmű a hely. A parkolás, hogy közvetlenül a szállás előtt volt hely a kocsinak az zseniális volt. Az ételek finomak, a szoba meleg és jól felszerelt.

Cons:

A padló recsegése az emeleten úgy hangzott, mintha a mi szobánkban járkáltak volna.

Trochu starší vybavení pokoje. Na přespání jednu až dvě noci naprosto dostačující.

Evitar a toda costa
Pros:

La ubicación no está mal

Cons:

Estado de abandono. Fatal. Casi todo está viejo y roto. No hay mantenimiento alguno. El servicio escaso y todas las bebidas absurdamente caras. 9£ por una copa de vino! Un timo

Pros:

Nettes Personal, Frühstück war ok.

Cons:

Defekte Lampe über dem Bett, die lose war. Dreckiger und eckliger Teppich, schlechte Matratze. Laute Leute vor dem Haus bis in den frühen Morgen. Viel zu teuer für eine solche Kaschemme.

Tuvimos un malentendido con el desayuno, la persona que nos atendió al llegar no fue nada amable y pese a tener problemas con su sistema, no nos dió solución
