Reception—- staff not very helpful. Multiple steps with no ramp or elevator to get to the desk.. situated to the side of the hotel. Room— multiple steps with no elevator or helpful way to get to the room. Room— very cramped for 3 adults. In a lower level like half basement. Very spartan furnishing for the price charged ( 247 US$ ). Bathroom — sink was very small & cracked, it was partly being shadowed by the small very old fashioned glass shelf. The water stank of sulphur. The bathroom measured less than 3 feet in diameter & about 8 ft or so in length. No place to keep your toilet stuff. Horrible for the price charged, at best it did not merit over 50 $. Not over 2 star rating. Restaurant —- very poor food. Over 25$ for a small cup of soup with very poor taste. Breakfast — most items in bread section were clearly stale or day old or more. Never stay there again.

The room itself was adequate. The shower is a little slippery for older folks. Beds were comfortable and the double pillows were an added bonus. The main issue was the restaurant. It appeared that service in that restaurant differs depending on the color of one’s skin which was disappointing as it put a small damper on my mother’s dream trip.

Not a very friendly front desk staff, their free WiFi sucks, doesn’t work in rooms, works only near front desk. We had booked two rooms for two couples and they provided single beds that too in different directions.

The rooms were very dingy. The bathroom was deplorable. No elevators and no one to help if you have to haul your luggage. Breakfast was disappointing. Dinner was overpriced. Overall, it was a disappointing experience. I should have looked at the Google rating (which is around 3) and it is correctly so.

A good place, but no ADA access.
First, you cannot phone the front desk, even when the system gives you the option of English, you cannot figure out a way to reach the hotel desk. And I needed to owing to a problem at the airport. Second, there is no ramp up to the lobby, so if you have heavy bags or ADA needs, this hotel is not for you. However, the breakfast is good, and loved the Smart TV. Room was nice and shower terrific.

Great stay in a little town.
Got caught here during a snow storm and they easily accommodated an extension. The rooms are big although we had to fully get everything out of the room so that they could clean. Breakfast was great. Decor was dated, but that would be my only minor complaint. Staff was really friendly and helpful. Small town, not much to do except for the baths and puffins (which we couldn’t see because the road was closed).
