Great location, lovely hosts but needs serious w…
Noisy neighbours which could be heard all night through the thin walls including the screaming plumbing when they showered! Our toilet and plumbing were pretty average as well!
Bed incredibly uncomfortable, room hot even without the heating on!
Great location and lovely hosts but hotel seriously needs some work…
