The property was great for 2 bedrooms and great location. The hosts were lovely and helpful. The only note I would make is that we were informed by a cafe that you shouldn't drink the water accoriding to notices frim the council. We were not informed by the motel and there were no signs in the room or by the taps. The manager said they had a sign on the counter which was noy pointed out and that they drank the water? I would suggest you dont drink the water if youre staying there
