Here's my experience staying at Hanifs:
I requested the stay for a few nights explaining beforehand that I travel for work, doing long hours and was looking for a quiet air b&b to rest at night.
Firstly I have been told to arrive on specific time 6 o'clock. After there was no towels in my room. I needed to wait a couple of hours until host's reply where to find them which is not a problem these things happen.
My main concern was the noise at night. Loud conversations laughter and bangs downstairs. Because of the layout of the house the noise travels upstairs very easily and unfortunately no earplugs would help out.
I wish someone left this type of review before other than just " could hear the hosts Tv at night".
I have voiced my concerns politely in a message and have been told the below:
.".. This is our family home so there will be voices from the living room. Sometimes a head phone helps if you are a light sleeper. Otherwise you may need to find a place better suited for your needs. Apologies again...."
I am a host myself and our main job is to provide the guest with a restful sleep. This is the main service we provide and benefit from financially.
Hosts must be considered of other peoples staying in their home otherwise why bother providing people with a room where they can't rest at night.
Unfortunately after the host's message above I won't be staying again. A simple "sorry it won't happen again" would solve the problem.
On the bright side a very clean place! And my neighbour in another room was a nice and quiet person.
