We booked in at the bar ran by 1 man who gave us our keys. The bar area was absolutely freezing I think it was warmer outside. Decided to have a beer after 2 hour journey they had no draught beer no coffee or tea the only drink they had was a small variety of bottled beers. Went to drop our bags in room at least there was a small heater in the room but bathroom freezing and no hot water. Went out in a taxi to Warkworth for the night. The next morning we went down at 9 for breakfast there was no sign of anyone in the hotel so left keys on bar and walked out. I would urge you to remove this so called hotel from your website as it is not fit for purpose. They should refund us our money back for the lack of everything at this hotel disgraceful.

Plain but comfortable room. Bar and restaurant areas exceptoinally and clean and well organised and a credit to the staff; who were welcoming, friendly and always willing to go the extra mile. Food was beyond expectation; this is great place to eat; and takeaways seem to be very popular.

Room ok but hotel has skeleton staff
Arrived late and no one was there to let me in, despite me calling. Hotel did say it was 11pm final check in so I suppose they did warn me. But I had to sleep on the beach until the hotel phoned me back at 3am.

I don't understand why the previous reviews were so negative. I've stayed in various hotels all over the world and this one was perfectly fine. Room was clean, bed comfy, bathroom clean and power shower worked great. Manager didn't speak great English, but once we got chatting, he turned out to be a really nice guy.

Do not stay here
This Inn is in terrible condition. The decor is beyond tired and in some cases, unfinished. The management are Indian and the receptionist spoke little English. The carpets are old and dirty. There were loose cables on the towel rail and TV. We were advised not to eat here.
