Shiek and Rustic
I had a great stay. Beautifully, considered renovation on this very old Hotel/Pub. No ensuite bathrooms, but the share bathroom is lovely, with three showers and two toilets, so no issues here!

First time to experience a shared toilet and bathroom. Good for the environment as water usage is minimal.
All the basic amenities in room is there except no coffee sachets. Hotel is good for transients. Like the old buildings in Fre tho, high ceilings and tall/long windows. Cant complain as we saw a famlly of 4 with 2 small kids next door. Overall, we had a fantastic stay.

fair vintage hotel
The value was. good, the service was pretty nice. It was quite noisy during their dinner period. Considering it offers a fair price in this area, it is ok.

Good if you don't need an early night, or don't want to watch tv (you can't hear it over the music/noise from the bars directly below)

Staff were lovely & felt safe. Idealocation. Pity there isn't an outside space for residents. Also nowhere to hang towels from beach or dry damp.swimwear. couldn't open windows. Personally I prefer staying in local houses where there are more facilities. But for a hotel it's great.

There was an alarm going all night. The room was very nice and clean, also nice staff. However, very crowded in the bar (good for the place:)), but a little noisy. But overall very good.

Very clean. Friendly staff. Simple, clean renovation of old hotel accom. Shared bathroom very pleasant. Very walkable area (though perhaps not for solo person late at night).
Pub music/noise from downstairs a little loud when trying to get a little one down to sleep, however ended before 11/12pm.
