Negative Reviews
negative:
Some doubts over value for money
Several critics expressed occasional doubts over whether their stays represented such good value for money. Although the room rates were usually reasonable, they reportedly weren't the area's most competitive.
negative:
Rural location best suited drivers
Although there was a bus stop nearby, guests noted that this property was slightly off the beaten path and therefore much easier to access for those with their own vehicles as public transport options were limited.
negative:
Light sleepers reported occasional noise
Despite the location usually being tranquil, a few light sleepers remarked that noise from adjacent rooms or the restaurant-bar sometimes travelled rather easily, causing an occasional disturbance.
