EVAN C.
The kitchen was disgusting. I had to scrub dirty utensils and filthy drawer fronts before using anything. There were missing cupboard doors, half the light bulbs didn’t work, and with no outside lights we needed our phone torches to find the front door at night. Empty boxes and crumbs were scattered around, and the chipped, cracked glasses in the cupboards were a sorry collection. It didn’t look as if anything had been cleaned or wiped down in ages. The bedside lamp had no bulb, and its switch was sticky with some gross residue. The second bedroom had two single beds instead of the promised double, and the curtains were so short they looked ridiculous. No dishwashing tablets were supplied. I asked for some and for the toilet seat to be fixed, but nothing happened. Staff seemed nonexistent during our stay. Weeds had taken over the garden, including under the back door. Dust and dirt were everywhere, and I wouldn’t dare walk barefoot. I came with high hopes, but this was a complete letdown: filthy, neglected, and poorly managed. It felt like the owners only cared about cashing in on tourists, with no interest in cleanliness or upkeep. What could be a lovely property was left to rot. I’d avoid the place until there’s a complete overhaul of management and a serious deep clean. Right now, it’s a dirty, neglected mess.

A lovely, welcoming little place, and close to town. The room was clean and neat, just the right size for a night, and we had a lovely evening. We’ll be back. The shower did have orange staining from grime and mould, though, and the grounds needed mowing and weeding when we visited. A toilet air freshener or spray would’ve helped too.

We had such a magical Christmas treat here. The garden was lovely, the views were exceptional, and the bed was super comfortable. Thank you!

The unit smelled damp, and there was mould around the shower edges. The floor was bare concrete apart from one small, old rug. There were no cooking facilities beyond a dirty microwave, and no TV or air conditioning. I’d booked five nights but left in under an hour. I was told I’d be refunded, but that never happened. The photos in the listing showed the manager’s room, which looked nothing like the units for rent. Don’t waste your money.

We stayed four nights in the Mountain Suite and loved waking up to that view and having a bath while looking out at it. The bed and pillows were really comfortable, and the room had a cute Airbnb feel. It was well insulated and warm, so we only used the heater now and then. I don’t understand the two negative reviews. You’ll want a car here. We debated renting one or using shuttles, but the location definitely calls for a car. We’ll make this our regular place.
