“a bit run down but clean,”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 September 2009
1
person found this review helpful

the pillar used to be a reasonable B&B . Now it is a bit run down and could do with a bit of decorating . Think 1970s B&B .The rooms are small ,but all rooms have laminated floors ,a small wardrobe ,wash basin and central heating ..All the walls are painted magnolia but could do with a repaint .
This place has 13 rooms ,9 rooms at the front 3 at the back ,no double glazing .
7 single rooms ,
2 double rooms
2 twin rooms and 2 family rooms .
It is advertised as a hostle ,but the sign outside says B&B .
Whatever room you get you will NOT be sharing with anyone else .
The price varies depending on when you stay and where you book .
I booked by phone ,I was told it was 30 euro for one night ,but when I arrived it was actually 25 euro for that night ,some websites quote 40 euro .
I was given room 8 .It had a double bed and a single bed .there are no bunk beds here so if you book a room for 3 or 4 expect double beds .
The beds are old but comfortable with clean beding .

On the first floor is a reception / computer area / kitchen all one room .
This floor has rooms 1,2&3 all at the front .No toilet or shower on this floor .

Second floor has rooms rooms 4,5,6 at the front ,room 7 at the back .There are two shower rooms with toilet and wash basin .

Third floor ,rooms 8,9&10 at the front rooms 11& 12 at the back room 31 ( not 13) is between room 10 and 12 and has a sky light . ( it used to be the airing cupboard )
This floor has 1 toilet and wash basin ,no shower . Every floor has a fire escape .
The carpets on the stairs look clean and in good condition .I didnt have breakfast ,but it is brought to your room between 8 and 10 am at a time of your choice .
(no dining room )But remember if you want 10 am and your neightbour wants 8 am you will hear the staff knocking the door at 8 am.The walls in the room are a bit thin and the beds are next to the wall so you will hear other people turning in bed .
