2/10 Poor

Do Not Stay Here

Deep dissatisfaction following a recent hotel booking I made on behalf of colleagues. Unfortunately, the experience was highly disappointing and embarrassing, as the actual condition & cleanliness of the hotel was significantly below the standard suggested by the photos on the portal. Upon arrival, it became immediately clear that the property bore little resemblance to the images advertised. After some investigation, I contacted the hotel directly to raise my concerns. When speaking with Tiffany, she acknowledged that the photos online were outdated & initially claimed there were no photos of the twin room. She later corrected this but insisted that, despite the old images, the rooms were still in good condition. This was simply not true, based on the evidence and the condition observed. I escalated the matter to the owner, Mr. Fabio Priori, who was unfortunately extremely rude and unprofessional. He stated that because the stay was already in progress, no refund (or even a partial discount) would be considered. Given that there were no alternative accommodations available at such short notice, there's no choice but to continue the stay. Despite my calm approach, Mr. Priori continually spoke over me, eventually shouting and swearing. This level of customer service was appalling and entirely unacceptable. I strongly urge you to review this property's listing, particularly the accuracy of its photos and the conduct of its management - Misleading marketing and poor service

Good value for the area

Stayed for business, it is what it is, reasonable rates for a reasonable room. Comfy beds, close to shops and plenty of food options within walking distance. Manageress very welcoming, polite and good local knowledge

6/10 Good

Lovely old building but sadly run down, 1980s decor and facilities and no food service of any kind. But bed was comfortable and TV worked well. Price was very low though so represents good value for money for a basic overnight stay.

It wasn’t terrible but I wouldn’t bring my family here. The sheets were clean, the bed was comfortable, the shower was hot and powerful . It was Saturday so the bar was open but no food being served, but there were other options to eat in the village.

Contacted the property arranged a late check in. Paid for the room directly with the hotel. Hotel gave me instructions how to enter the property. I arrived 10pm, hotel had not respected what was agreed. I could not enter hotel, and it was impossible to contact anyone. Basically I have paid and received nothing in return.

Not one human was available to help. Ever! Room was dirty and smelled like a cave No other guests were seen! Creepy hallways that’s smelled like urine. No access to Wi-Fi Shower hard to find and was dirty

2/10 Poor

I was booked in for 2 nights but didn't return for the 2nd night. Where do I start? I literally had to use the torch on my phone to find the room and dodge beams on the way. Parking was scarce and I had to park on double yellows for the night. Exit in the morning was through the fire escape which was wide open all night. No shower in my room but didn't dare look at the shared shower given the run down state of the whole place. Will be looking for a refund.
howard, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Was dark when we arrived. Rooms were very outdated. Bathroom was filthy. Didn’t even attempt a shower. No facilities for food. Propert didn’t have set close time so was already closed when we returned to our room in the evening. Struggled to find the rear entrance, luckily another couple showed us how to get in. Even just for one night I spent the day looking for somewhere else to stay. Met one member of staff. He was very friendly and helpful can’t fault his customer service. Just a shame no staff on sight all night and that the rooms are so dirty and outdated.

4/10 Fair

Dark, dingy, depressing, dangerous.

Oh dear. Read the reviews, thought, surely its fine for one night. Avoid, honestly, it wont be worth half of what you are paying. So many red flags on this place but the biggest for me...when we checked it in was daytime, got the key and headed to the room which took you through a dark reception room and through unlit corridors, I just thought they are saving money as daytime....no....if you get back after the pub closes, all the lights are off. I mean all of them. As in you are walking though the corridors of this very old hotel in PITCH black. The room is extremely dated. I'd guess from the 70's-80's, and not in a cute kitch way. In a time when people are worried about beg bugs in Paris, I was more worried about the plague still infesting what honestly looked like could be original 15th century carpets. Last thing...honestly there are so many things but theres only so many characters. The back door to the hotel (which was on our floor), was just open all night, it doesnt even look like it has a functioning lock anymore.
