“Basic comfort at good value”
Our flight was cancelled and we desperately needed somewhere to stay for the night. I honestly didn't take much notice of the details while booking because there were so many people on the flight looking for somewhere to stay. The room was in a house, with shared bathroom facilities with one other guest which was fine. We felt super welcomed and cared for, and the bedroom was comfortable. I had a great sleep thank you!

“I did not stay as it was not what was described at all”
There was no information that this was a family home and that there was little to no privacy, I was told I would have to walk through the family home to use the bathroom and toilet facilities, this was a very uncomfortable setting. I was also told there was flooding and could not stay in the room I had booked. I booked one room with two beds and there was one bed in a room I had to enter the family house to gain access. I was not happy and sis not stay at all at this facility.

“Avoid!”
Very small room with single bed. No room to unpack luggage. All facilities were shared with family of 4. Felt uncomfortable and unwelcome when using bathroom and kitchen. Received threatening message when I closed door to bathroom while I put on make up and used mirror. Not told about a one fruit with breakfast policy and then was kicked out because I had another piece of fruit that was laid out with breakfast stuff in the evening. No chance to discuss I just received a message that I had to leave by morning! Would definitely avoid this place and wish I had read all the reviews that have given 1 star before booking!! Felt pretty upset and disturbed by my stay here. I think booking.com should potentially not have this place as a listing. It is advertised differently from what it is.... a very small room in someone's family home who can kick you out at any moment for a one fruit with breakfast policy that wasn't even mentioned! Still feel a bit shocked about what happened and a little in disbelief!

“Appalling”
The kindness and humour of the strangers (other guests) who became our friends in a shared horror! Imagine, I will be equally amused by the hosts response to this review! Read them all folks before booking and change the filter to newest first. Miraculously the first one to come up at the moment is a 10!
