Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Room was not ready at 16:00 in the afternoon. Management was not aware of our booking. Definitely not a full breakfast included. This is most definitely no longer a four star B&B and had a terrible experience. Would not recommend it to anyone.
