We stayed for two nights and were warmly welcomed and collected from the port. On arrival we found that the verandah outside the rooms was festooned with drying laundry. The facilities of the room and its en-suite were basic, and the bed had not been made ready for us. The towels were rock-hard and there were no towel rails and no mug. The fly curtain at the door was fixed inadequately with drawng pins. Both nights we were kept awake, one night for 4 hours, by a neighhbour's continuously barking dog, a regular occurrence apparently. The room was not serviced and the bed not made during our stay. It was nice to have breakfast outside, but the first morning when there were others staying and already there we were not offered anything, not even crockery and cutlery - it was quite disorganised; the second morning, we were the only guests, and there was nothing in evidence at all and we had to rummage in the fridge for fruit juice and make our own drinks. The effect is casual in the extreme, and not what one expects when paying for bed and breakfast: although friendly enough and willing to impart information, the proprietors seem to have no concept of what is expected nowadays in this type of accommodation.
