From the outside the hotel looked good. Entering the hotel the restaurant was welcoming although it looked a little expensive. The single rooms that we had booked were an absolute disappointment. They resembled a prison cell. Although clean, the room had painted brick walls, a low divan bed with an upper bunk hidden behind curtains, a toilet without a lid, a depressing small shower and the heating was not on. No telephone even to call reception. Incredibly small too. I don't know what the original intention of the hotel was, but [perhaps it was for school kids on a cycling holiday. No good at all for older visitors. Not a room you wished to stay in. The original decor of the hotel public areas was full of character and the continental breakfast was really good. But the whole place had seen better days and desperately needed some new management cultures imposed!
