Had a good meal there and our server was brilliant, but apart from that it's the worst place I've ever stayed. Grossly overpriced; No proper reception to check in; horrible steep and narrow stairs (anyone with mobility problems avoid at all costs); room was dark, dingy and nothing like the pictures; went down at 9:10 on Sunday morning for breakfast (advised breakfast time 8:30 - 9:30!?) NOTHING! everywhere locked up and in darkness, no staff to be found. We packed the car, left the room key on the side and left!! Never ever to return.
Made Fawlty Towers look like a 5* hotel .Arrived for check in at 2 pm as arranged ,nobody available to allocate room. Young girl behind bar tried to contact manager but they didn't answer phone. She gave us 2 room key after sitting in bar for 1 and a half hour . Landlord had very loud Birthday party for himself in side bar till very late with people on the stairs to rooms swearing loudly. Got up for breakfast at 8.30 am with another couple who were staying , all locked up nobody available. Nobody there when we left at 9.50 am as taxi was waiting ,having had no breakfast which we had paid for . Only plus bar staff were good ,but management hopeless
