Ok....just not gread. Needs updating, especially the outside.
Pros:

Location was fine, close to where I needed to be

Cons:

Looks like it needs updating. The experience on arriving is underwhelming, looks like it was abandoned some years ago. Was at some time a nice house I'm sure. As an old building there is no aircon so if it's hot it's unbearable. Plus road noise is significant. Staff could be more friendly (like a welcome smile...). Food passable....small hotel so feels empty. I've read some of the other reviews and the defensive comments from the owners - it is what it is.

Pros:

We got a call from the owner directly to say that due to unforeseen circumstances we had been booked and upgraded to their sister hotel only a few mins drive away from our originally booked hotel.
On arrival we were greeted by Glen the owner who was amazingly helpful and charming, full of knowledge about the area...even offered to give us a lift into town if we wanted it.
The room was comfortable and tastefully decorated with comfortable furniture and bed.
Food was lovely and well presented with an amazing view from the dining room.

Cons:

No complaints.

A very clean and welcoming hotel with great rooms presented to a high standard by fantastic people.
Pros:

The hotel was immaculately clean, the rooms were spacious and well decorated, after a long day travelling the hotel was a welcome sight, and the hotel was a great place to stay, very well presented, and the staff were next level friendly. Food - great, nice and freshly cooked to order from a small menu of tasty food which meant they were able to make fresh for you, breakfast was the same - just a real lovely family run venture - well done. Next time I am in the area this will be the place to go.

Never again.
Pros:

Not much.

Cons:

After a long journey in terrible weather it was very, very disappointing to find the restaurant closed at 8pm. Hotel is basic to say the least and not particularly clean. The young girl working both reception and the bar by herself was friendly and helpful enough.
