The experience felt like actually sleeping outside with the chickens. The pod smelled of chicken waste, the sink didn’t drain, and the noise was unbearable—constant chicken noises, roosters crowing, and no peace or quiet to rest. We couldn’t wait to leave. The only saving grace was the staff, who were friendly and helpful, but that does not make up for the dreadful conditions. I would never stay here again. Avoid this place unless you’re prepared for a farmyard disaster. ##### Pavlína Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Alex 3 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Alex Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Holiday Inn Express London Victoria by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-London-Victoria.h78964.Hotel-Information) > > [Park House Hotel Museum Quarter, Sonder by Marriott Bonvoy](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Amsterdam-Hotels-Sonder-Park-House.h67202027.Hotel-Information) > > [The Plough Scalby](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Scarborough-Hotels-The-Plough-Scalby.h13010066.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Newbury](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newbury-Hotels-Budget-Hotels.0-0-d5644-tBudgetHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [5 Star Hotels in Antalya](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Antalya-Hotels.s50-0-d481.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [CABU By The Lakes](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cavan-Hotels-CABU-By-The-Lakes.h48850549.Hotel-Information) > > [Trewern Arms Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newport-Hotels-Trewern-Arms-Hotel.h6414383.Hotel-Information) > > [Royalton Riviera Cancun, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort & Casino](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cancun-Hotels-Royalton-Riviera-Cancun-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h8655945.Hotel-Information) > > [Number 61 Guest House and Tea Room](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels-Number-61-Guest-House-And-Tea-Room.h20163759.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place London City East](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-London-City-East.h60903297.Hotel-Information) > > [Waterfront Cebu City Hotel & Casino](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cebu-Hotels-Waterfront-Cebu-City-Hotel-Casino.h542002.Hotel-Information) > > [Dusit Thani Mactan Cebu Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lapu-Lapu-Hotels-Dusit-Thani-Mactan-Cebu-Resort.h34945712.Hotel-Information) > > [Garrya Tongsai Bay Samui](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Koh-Samui-Hotels-The-Tongsai-Bay.h404839.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Rio de Janeiro Copacabana](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rio-De-Janeiro-Hotels-Fairmont-Rio-De-Janeiro-Copacabana.h174198.Hotel-Information) > > [Pine Cliffs Residence, a Luxury Collection Resort, Algarve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albufeira-Hotels-Pine-Cliffs-Residence.h904328.Hotel-Information) > > [Resorts Bora Bora](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bora-Bora-Hotel-Resorts.d602861-aaHotelResorts.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hyatt Place Titusville / Kennedy Space Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Titusville-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Titusville-Space-Center.h44354265.Hotel-Information) > > [Lochway Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dumbarton-Hotels-The-Milton-Inn-Hotel.h12723894.Hotel-Information) > > [Castle Dargan Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ballygawley-Hotels-Castle-Dargan-Hotel.h1640774.Hotel-Information) > > [citizenM New York Bowery](https://www.expedia.co.uk/New-York-Hotels-CitizenM-New-York-Bowery.h22247316.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [SATA International-Azores Airlines S.A.
