You can hear everything in this property. The cleaners started cleaning at 8.30/9am and even though there was a sign outside our room that says to respect other customers who were staying, there was a complete disregard for this. They were being very loud. The room was absolutely boiling constantly even with windows open. Would not recommend, ended up leaving early even if we got offered another room, we feared it would be just as loud and uncomfortable to stay in as it is a small hotel.

An amazing place to stay

We stayed for 2 nights. The room was very comfortable. We ate twice here and the food was delicious. The staff were amazing, very hospitable, nothing was too much trouble. If we visit this area again, we would have no hesitation in returning. Thank you for a lovely stay.
