Liked: nice location and friendly staff but not helpful!
Disliked: Full of empty bottles in the morning. Dirty showers. Mosquito invaded. Very noisy at night and very late (past midnight and 2am on our 2 nights) Far too expensive for just putting up tents in a bar. Probably great for nightlife & partying, but CUSTOMERS SHOULD BE WARNED about the noise after 10pm. I also walked on a rat at night. Staff friendly but not helpful. Hostel badly managed but good potential though.

Liked: It was an okay place. No real complaints, although there were some ants around the toilet that I wasn't a fan of. A little out of the way from the town centre.

ANDREW BOYLE
20 November 2009 ANDREW would recommend this property
Liked: The en suite double accommodation is very good but the main house, where the other rooms are is a bit "tired". The kitchen needs some attention and there is a lack of appliancies, ie no toaster or microwave, plus there are limited hots to cook with. I did mention the lack of toaster etc, but their answer was " that the toaster had been stolen, and the microwave had broken down". I do not thing that is good enough. Having said that, my wife and I enjoyed the peace and tranquility of the place, and the staff was very friendly and helpful.
Disliked: ANDREW left no negative feedback.
