Bembridge Windmill

Found the bed not very comfortable

Had a great stay, staff very welcoming and helpful and great views of the countryside

Abacus is certainly good for the price point, but I wouldn't recommend staying here for more than a couple of days. The room was OK, small and smelled a little odd (I think because of the fridge) but otherwise mostly clean and comfortable. The owner was friendly. Included breakfast was a bonus. WiFi was patchy, which I would normally overlook, but given the mobile reception in the area is bad, it did create a problem. The biggest problem is the shared bathrooms. They're more like tiny cupboards that you can barely move in, and both somehow have a toilet, shower and sink crammed in. They're kept quite clean but given that you have to do some gymnastics to avoid putting your foot in the toilet when getting out of the shower really isn't great. Could do with a bit of a refresh (and a thorough review of the bathroom situation), but otherwise good.
