Our welcome was pleasant but even though we had paid a deposit of half the amount, we were asked to settle the bill on arrival. This was the ONLY guest house that did so. In addition we had to pay an extra fee for the use of our credit card - again the only guest house to charge us. Had they told us, we would have paid cash.
On the whole the place needed a good lick of paint and certainly the garden furniture was very very tired.
If you were the first up for breakfast you would get the pick of the selection, after that the staff didn't add to the food. For instance the fruit platter would be full at 8.00 and the same platter would be there at 9.00 so what was left was what you got. When we asked for some cheese as there was none, we were told that it had run out. It was the only guest house that I felt the food was limited.
The Guest house is on a busy main road and there are 3 locks to get thru before the key to your room. No privacy as the rooms are one next to the other - no private sitting areas.
The shower was so close to the wall that it was almost impossible to get under. There were no bathroom fixtures to put toiletries etc.
No secure parking - parking on the pavement or on the main road.
Staff were very friendly and helpful.
We stayed in far superior Guest Houses for less.
Would recommend staying outside of town.
