I wouldn’t say spotless but ok. The only thing I was surprised with was no laundry facilities or advertising where u could go we stayed 4 nights & washed in the hand basin or shower. Otherwise meals were great and staff friendly would visit again glad I chose the holiday!

Room was great. Basic but clean. Great views. Breakfast great. Property was advertised as having parking but there was very very limited parking on site so we had to park on street. Street was steep so taking luggage in and out was a challenge.
