We were first given a room that was absolutely vile, water damaged furniture, grubby, dusty. a health hazard. not fit for purpose. then after complaining was offered to see a different room. on the ground floor which was clean, newly renovated and fine for our stay. The tiny court yard garden was still a mess with the aftermath of the renos. If you book here ask to see the room before you pay or agree to stay.
