Our room was absolute barebones !!!! No chair no hanging cupboard, no night lamps, no tv, no tea or coffee facilities, no decoration of any kind, two wooden boxes for bed stands !!! No cups or glasses for water. Bathroom the same, bad smell from shower, no water pressure, toilet cistern faulty, had to open tank to get floater valve to work. No cupboard beneath the sink, bordered up, no place to put toiletries, tiles unfinished in shower !!!!

Amazing place to stay with a short walk to the beach. Owners were very accommodating and friendly. Rooms are clean and fresh with privacy. Burger and nachos at the restaurant were my favourite. Definitely worth checking out. Five stars all around.
