Charming service, very run down accommodation
I think the pictures on the website present a very sanitised version of the hotel. When we arrived, we have a very friendly welcome, but even though we knew we were out of season, we were not prepared for the state of disrepair of the hotel. The outdoor areas were all cluttered with discarded matresses, cushions, chairs etc and there was absolutely nowhere to sit outside. There was no bar, just a vending machine. The breakfast was very basic too. The room, though run down was surprisingly comfortable however, but due to the amount we had paid, we were expecting a far higher standard. This was more akin to a youth hostel / B & B and I would have probably enjoyed my stay at a third of the price I paid!
Locals were unbelievably helpful - escorted us personally off the bus and to the hotel which we would never ave found without them!

Better than expected
It was classified as a 2 star hotel, but should probably have been 3. The rooms are small and the breakast is basic, but the staff is friendly and service minded. The clenliness is good, something that I usually dont expect in a 2 star hotel.
