Negative Reviews
negative:
Smells mouldy when you walk into the building
Previous guests have noticed a smell around the hotel like damp/mould which is quite off putting when you enter the building as well as the rooms. This may be due to condensation in the winter or older style windows.
negative:
Bathrooms are dated and old and need redoing
The bathrooms are mention a a lot as being dirty and old, in need of a revamp. The owners are currently doing up the hotel so this may be looked at. The Hotel reopened in October 2014.
negative:
Strong smell of sewage at breakfast
The Hotel has recently been restored and there appears to still be work ongoing but there is a mention of a smell only at breakfast time in the restaurant which has put many people off coming and staying again.
