“Don't do it - you deserve better. Very run down.”

Reviewed 7 January 2008

This property looks lovely from the outside - but that's where it ends.
If it's a very poor bed, with a dirty bathroom and broken furniture that you like to experience when you're away from home, then this B&B is for you. Overall - the room we stayed in was very, very run down, and a long shot from 3 stars.

The owners of the property were very helpfull and pleasant however, sadly have no idea when it comes to providing a pleasant and comfortable stay.

If you wish to have coffee for breakfast, be aware that you must make it in your room first.

There are many other lovely looking B&B's and hotel in the area - even for around the same price - so it's best you look elsewhere.

Until things shape up at "The Dunn Thing" - do yourself a favour and opt for a better place to stay. Ayre is a lovely place, so trreat yourself.

Liked — Was situated in a lovely area, and had a beautifull facade
Disliked — The poor presentation and fitout of the room.

“Nice seaside, but not great B&B”

We were in Ayr for a friends wedding and stayed at the Dunn Thing for a couple of nights. They picked us up from the airport, which was nice. When we got to the guest house the room was cold because nobody had switched on the heating. The furniture looked a bit run down, we had trouble keeping the wardrobe doors closed. The hospitality tray had one tea bag and several bags of sugar, nothing else, in addition the cups and spoons were dirty. The bathroom was a sort of closed box planted in on corner of the bedroom. During the time we were there the hospitality tray wasn't restocked, the same was true for the toilet paper. Breakfast was OK, we don't recommend the porridge, but the cutlery wasn't particularly clean, dried bits of something could be identified. There are plenty of things which could be improved and plenty of other guest houses to choose in that same street.
