No comment
Even if I tried to explain that the reasons that led me to cancel the booking were very serious, they apply to me the complete fee. Even if I cancelled 48 hours before the booking. In my opinion, this is a robbery, considering that all this is happening in low season. I just asked for a partial refund, not complete. But they said no. Shame on you
Mill dam visit
I have stopped at the Mill dam guest a couple of times and you get good value for the money you pay, nothing flashy but it is clean and tidy, the beds are comfortable and it is situated close to the town centre.
Average
Stayed for two nights visiting friends in Shields. The landlord was friendly, the room was okay, bathroom definitely needed an upgrade. Good location. Had a couple arguing most of the second night which was difficult. Other than that it does what it says on the tin.
Overnight stay
Never stayed in a guest house before and probably the last.On arrival there was no one to meet us buzzer on the wall to speak to the owner ( who we never saw ) very poor. Cleaner showed us to our room which was very small and toilet looked like a broom cupboard. Near Customs house and market. Clean bed but the room needs a total makeover .No breakfasts served went to local Asda which is cheap and not far away.
Be Warned....Cancellation
We had to cancel due to the adverse weather conditions where we live in Scotland (snow blizzarrds). We notified the Mill Dam Guest House 4 days in advance to advise of the weather conditions and to let them know we would be postponing our visit until such times that the weather stabilised, most likely some weeks ahead. The owners had already taken a 1 night deposit back in January... which we lost. However, we were also charged for the remaining night too, this was taken from my credit card 2 days after I contacted the guest house to advise them on our cancellation. Even Top Class Hotels don't "double dip" on cancellations, in fact the majority do not charge at all if reasonable notice is given. Be Warned....Absoluetly scandalous!!! Keith Dodds
