The only way to leave a review is to first make a booking. That's how we know our reviews come from real guests who have stayed at the property.
2
When guests stay at the property they check out how quiet the room is, how friendly the staff are and more.

After their trip, guests tell us about their stay. We check for naughty words and verify the authenticity of all guest reviews before adding them to our site.

Friendly hosts, very welcoming and always good for a chat. Excellent base for a holiday. Within easy reach of Ross. Some great walks right from the door.

Tight parking, if you have a large car, but you are made aware of this at time of booking.

After arriving there, the first thing we noticed was dirt all over the car park and dirt on the front door of the Hotel (including a dirty towel). As we walked in, we were "hit" by a pervasive smell of old decor / damp that basically got worse as we were proceeding to the reception. After a member of the staff handed us the keys, we headed to our room and all we could see was random dirt on the corridors / stairs (including used tissues here and there) and a constant squeaking of the floor all over the place. Once entered in the room, we started too look around and there were several things that needed attentions: Dirty toilet, dead insect on the furniture, dirty carpet, mould around the windows edges, broken glass and, again, incredibly squeaky floor. We decided to go back to reception and inform the staff about the problems, and, after the receptionist came with us and agreed about the unpleasant situation, he took few other keys from the office and showed us other rooms hoping for an improvement. As we were not happy with the other rooms, we asked for a refund or at least a partial one but this was "denied" as the receptionist had to run it first to his manager. In the end we basically left without to stay at the hotel and contacted bookings to report the issues. I'd like to point out that the same day we tried to call bookings and see if we could cancel the reservation because a friend of us offered us a bedroom a his property, but due to the reservation being "non refundable", we couldn't cancel and therefore we decide to go the hotel anyway. Furthermore, in the past few weeks we have been in contact with both Bookings and the Hotel hoping at least for a partial refund but, nothing conclusive happened in the end.
