Comfortable small hotel
Comfortable bedroom, good food, we ate dinner and breakfast in the hotel. Staff were friendly but the only let down was the bathroom which was very dated. Perfectly functional but could do with upgrading. Not really a problem but also there was no hairdryer, which has become normal in most hotels so hadn’t thought to take my own.

Warm, Welcoming and Wonderful
This really is a great place. The staff is fantastic! I was in a single room at the front of the hotel. The bed wasn't great. That is really my only concern. I was over the pub (which is wonderful!) so it was a bit noisy until closing. My solution for that: join in the fun. As just an FYI. If you're sensitive to light you'll have to bring an eye mask, but again an easy fix. This room must've been above the smoking area as it did stink. I'm sure I could've moved, no doubt the wonderful staff would've accommodated me but I just didn't say anything as I was only there 2 nights. I would recommend this place and stay again.

would definitely stay here again
Would describe the place as "quaint", a bit run down (condition of bathrooms, floors) but also well cared for and clean (bedding/towels). Im certain all rooms differ, but we happened to have a lovely view out the window. Centrally located in Merose, friendly and accomodating staff. Included breakfast had a variety of options. Slept comfortably, would definitely stay here again.

Waste of money, find better
Really bad service throughout, on this our second stay here. I reserved an evening meal table and understand the staff were busy due to a wedding party, but we are all customers and deserve to treated the same. Food was not as I would have expected. Certain members of staff were polite, but others just impolite and it was obvious they were stressed due to the workload. Breakfast here is a complete shambles. As the state on arrival its between 8 and 9 but again the staff cannot cope. you queue for hot water for the tea and coffee machine which takes it seems 3 minutes a cup and when trying to get 2 cups it seems longer. When the breakfast you ordered does arrive its around 45 mins and cold, I sent mine back only for another 5 minutes wait, it actually came back colder. I just left in disgust. Save you money, there is easily better

Helpful staff but overpriced accommodation
The staff were very helpful and obliging and the food was very nice. However, both my bedroom and bathroom were small and overpriced in comparison to other b&b’s that I have stayed in.
