Negative Reviews
negative:
Wi-Fi is disappointing in some rooms
It's worth noting that not all bedrooms here have a good Wi-Fi connection, with some guests reporting that the signal in their room was slow. Guests who require robust Internet access should request a room with good Wi-Fi upon booking.
negative:
Nothing much outside
Although not a huge negative, some guests have commented that they would have appreciated a communal outdoor area to relax in when the weather allows it.
negative:
Be careful of the low ceilings
A handful of guests have commented that the ceilings in one or two of the bedrooms here are particularly low - taller guests may wish to stay in a room with higher ceilings to avoid any bumps on the head.
