Disliked: Staff & service
Rooms were ok, very basic. Toilets could do with extra cleaning. The main reason I wouldn’t stay here again is because I found every single staff memeber to be rude and unhelpful. I booked two nights but only stayed one.

They were really helpful and nice hosts. I needed to change a room and they made it really easy and were really kind. But toilets were seriously dirty most of the time, showers aswell.
