Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Bed very comfortable and nice area
Negative: The check in, which was very confusing 🫤 I had a message to phone on arrival which I did, unfortunately the owner and the staff seemed very stressed and then was told I had an unpaid bill, but payment was already taken out by bookin.com. Hope they resolve this, as it made my stay a bit uncomfortable. Maybe put in the message to check in at bar on arrival.
Summary: Was ok after the confusion, comfortable night sleep
