The only fault I had was struggling to get up 47 steps on stairs to get to the second floor for reception . Not that long had a spine operation and found it a real struggle . I never seen any info on booking this hotel before hand otherwise I wouldn’t have booked this hotel . Other than that room was really clean and staff and location was great .

While the location and staff are wonderful, we were left disappointed in our room. This room would be a nightmare for any elderly people and is a nightmare for women. There are no plugs in the bathroom so you can’t do anything using the mirror. The blowdryer is attached to the wall in the closet so you essentially have to bend into the closet to dry your hair. We found one plug to use for all of our needs and it was no where near the side tables. The shower has no shelves or place to put shampoo or anything and for older people can be dangerous bending down to get things off the floor. The bedroom floor was covered in glitter as well. Overall our stay was pleasant, the staff were very knowledgeable and friendly, it was clean for the most part, but it’s not user friendly women and maybe not the safest for elderly people.
