It’s a nice casual place to stay. More backpackers style but friendly and easy. We loved that they left out surplus garden produce like tomatoes, apples and peppers. The cafe next door is great for a good meal and a drink

We have stayed at the property many times. The cleanliness and facilities have gone downhill. Bathrooms seem much dirtier than previously. Kitchen area showing signs of needing deep cleaning. Rubbish bins overflowing in kitchens and bathroom areas. Linens had bad odours. Staff slow at reception.
