Very difficult to regulate the water temperature in the shower. Either scalding hot or ice cold. Hard to get clean under those conditions.

The picture listed on line is not from the property. Amenities advertised do not exist. No restaurant or bar. The hotel is in really bad shape and need to be renovated. The lady running the place was really nice.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Greeted by the owner who appeared to be alone. No assistance with baggage, no lifts. Same state as a 1970,s B&B. The owner was friendly and helpful. No breakfast, although tea and coffee were available in the room. The room was small and old fashioned, but clean. The best room was the bathroom which was just recently refurbished and almost the same size as the bedroom.

The bathroom was new and bigger than the room. Know one said we had to climb 8 fights of stairs to the tiny room. It was clean, but old furniture. It felt like a cheap, youth hostel. Very expensive for so little.
