Bathroom walls were full of mould. We were there 5 nights & the Black Dolphin didn’t come & give fresh towels or clean the room or take garbage once. The games room is from the 1970s. The spa was empty. The pool was just “ok”. Very dated & musty. Dishes had to be done in the bathroom sink beside toilet. Wifi was useless. Won’t return.
