I have stayed here numerous times over the past 25 years, sadly, over the past 4-5 years the decline has been huge. The quirkiness of the place used to be really appealing, breakfast used to be excellent and the long-time staff really friendly and helpful. Sadly the whole place looks in need of more than a little TLC. The first room we were given was dingy, dark, dirty and had net curtains with big holes. I asked for another room, which was a little better, but still one of the bedside lights didn’t work, the fan in the bathroom didn’t work, the linings to the curtains were in shreds, windows dirty inside and out. We gave the place another chance with this stay, but unless massive changes are made, this will be the last time we stay.
