Review of Ye Old Ferrie Inn

Disappointed. Ye Olde Ferrie Inn offers bunkhouse and B&B accommodation. Some friends and I stayed in their bunkhouse for a weekend recently. The room seemed pleasant enough, but there was no lock on the door to the bedroom (the door once had a lock but was now missing). The bedroom had its own bathroom, but the bathroom door didn't shut properly and as a result the lock on the bathroom door was also broken where where someone had tried to force it to lock. The bathroom was clean and functional but would clearly benefit from modernisation. There was signs of mold around the shower because the wall hadn't been tiled to the full height of the shower — only painted. Back in the bedroom one of the two lights in the room had a blown bulb. All of the things mentioned above may seem like minor niggles — but they are things that are quick and easy and inexpensive to remedy — so why not? Of more concern was the attitude of the staff/management. When the booking was made, it was made clear that one of our group also wished to stay on the Sunday night (since it was a lot closer to his work than his own home and could therefore get up an hour later and save petrol money when going to work on Monday morning). We were told this wouldn't be a problem when the booking was made. However, on the Sunday morning the manager (? ) denied ever saying it was ok for one person to stay the Sunday night (despite the booking only having been made a few days earlier). It also seemed to our group that those persons staying in the B&B were being preference when it came to serving breakfast (i. E. They got served first and given larger/better located tables even though we had arrived first). It should also be noted that there is no kitchen that bunkhouse guests can use so you are obliged to eat in the pub — the website does not mention this. Food is perfectly ok — it would just be nice to have another option. We won't be going back.
