Nothing pretentious about this place. Warm & friendly staff. We arrived without a booking early evening & looking for cheap accommodation. The lovely lady who was looking after the reception & bar could not have been more helpful. She showed us rooms for us to take a pick of & I think had to go back to reception at least... More
