We had an unpleasant stay at the property. We paid extra for late check out. However, at 10am, the housekeeping staff has been banging our room telling us to vacate the place. So we informed them that our checkout time is supposed to be midday. Receptionist was so rude, didn’t apologise and blamed another receptionist for their muck up. We were made to feel so unwelcome. It was just so horrible.

tiny old room not even a cupboard to place your stuff very basic. when i booked only it says double bed and turns out to be a bunkbed which is fine because we are tired of travelling in last 24 hours and needs to resr. However the steel bunkbed frame was squicking everytime you move. Also note you can hear the noise from the hallway, room next door and other patrons walking up and down the steps. fan in the bathroom is noisy. location wise is perfect and enough parking for guest. Did not able to dine at the restaurant “social club” as they not serving anymore meal after 7pm :(

Overall stay was good, however we could hear everything going on upstairs, which happened to be someone just walking around constantly which was quite disruptive. This however isn’t the fault of the hotel! Lovely man serving coffee in the morning, beautiful views and so close to everything!

The room was a little tatty, a few cobwebs around the ceiling, a loose hot tap on the sink, chipped paint, perceived as poor attention to cleanliness and maintenance to poor quality fixtures and fittings. Reasonably well located with respect to the town, on site car parking inadequate if the place is full, The uninvitingly named 'social club' which is the motel eating and drinking facility was, we thought, surprisingly good.

We booked a room for me and my misses plus our 9 year old daughter. We only stayed two nights and thought the staff were very friendly and enjoyed the hotel on the whole. Apart from the ceiling fan and the extractor fan needing a clean the room suited our needs. Would recommend.

It is convenient but room small, very noisy from other patrons & restaurant/bar. Fan in toilet very nosey and no separate light beside that connected to the toilet fan. No air conditioning in room, opening the window increases the noise.

Property is tired, bed very hard and pillows cheap. No air conditioning in room but had a ceiling fan this didn't help and cool room unless windows open but no safety latches on window so felt uncomfortable leaving these open even though in a room directly above ground floor level.

Arrived later than expected after driving 6 hours. Got there just before 9. Reception closed at 9. But I couldn’t find driveway so drove round and round. Then no off street parking available. So had to park up the road. Couldn’t get in. As had no instructions for lock box. Called help phone. He wasn’t best pleased. Came and helped eventually. Went to room. Room was tired and run down. Old fashioned. Was kept awake most of the night by people upstairs walking around. Creaking floor very loud. I couldn’t wait to get up and leave. Should be a youth hostel not a lodge. Never again.
