Appalling!!
I was a member of a Hen Party - all ages - I have to say that I was glad that it was for only one night! (Saturday) The room was crammed - 5 sharing a double room - bunkbeds, double bed and single - the single bed blocking the wardrobe - or should I say cupboard?! In the bathroom there was a false eyelash stuck to the floor - from the previous occupant I presume. The bath panel at the edge of the bath was hanging off. The shower head was cracked which resulted in the water flowing over the top of the shower curtain. I was on the top floor - where there was a leak in the roof on the landing - so an upturned waste paper bin was placed! No information about what to do in an emergency.

Wonderful home from home
From the moment my husband,granddaughter and I arrived and were greeted by the owner's daughter, Marion we felt at home. As I use a wheel chair our room was at the Mimosa rather than the main hotel, Emmanuel but we were able to have an English breakfast daily at Emmanuel.It was beautifully cooked by the owner, a lovely lady called Augusta. Each morning we chatted about our plans for the day and Augusta did all she could to find details of what was happening at the various venues we were interested in.When it came time for us to leave she even helped to pack our luggage into the car. It had been a lovely few days and our granddaughter was very sad to say goodbye so we hope we may be able to visit again one day.
