Bed & Breakfast The Pipers — Restaurant in Middelkerke

As there we four adults travelling all over 50 years or age and with one of our party being disabled we chose and booked the apartment which, according to the information included a fitted kitchen.||||On our arrival we were kept waiting in the bar area for quite some time before we were shown to the room, which was on the second floor and could only be accessed via two flights of very narrow, steep and badly lit stairs (see photos).||||When we finally got to the room we were extremely disappointed to find that there was NO KITCHEN! This room, although clean and freshly decorated, was nothing like the apartment we had booked and two of our party had to sleep in bunk beds that were clearly intended for children!||||When we complained to the manager all had said was that it was a problem with the agent and nothing to do with the Pipers. He actually said that NONE of the rooms had a kitchenette! The best he could do was give us two double rooms on the first floor for the second night. ||||We requested, and received, a small fridge plus a kettle and accessories which arrived fairly promptly. ||||We were disappointed with the breakfast. The bacon was awful and the eggs didn't even look like eggs, but there was plenty cereal and a selection of cold meat and cheese available which did compensate to some degree.||||The staff were friendly, helpful and accommodating and could not be faulted although they were not in any hurry to take our money off us on the day we left and this kept us hanging around the bar area for two hours.||||We do feel that was should have received compensation for the stress and hastle but as the hotel manager was unavailable on the day of our departure, we were unable to negotiate with anyone. ||||Overall - a well presented hotel ideal for able-bodied people but definitely not for the disabled, and the general structure of the building leaves a lot to be desired with uneven floors and steps which could potentially cause serious harm. ||||DO NOT BOOK THE NON-EXISTANT...

If you are after a peaceful nights sleep Do Not Stay Here. The pub is below the family rooms on the 1st floor the pub serves food to 1.00 am. This is followed by the staff and locals drinking on to 4.00 am. The music was only turned off when I went down to the bar and complained at 1.30 am. ||||The staff don`t give a dam about the guests and the so called Irish breakfast is rubbish, the only thing Irish about this place is the decor and the beer. The shower head was broken, the sink blocked up, the floor board are damaged and creaking. One window had no curtains or blinds, no remote control for the TV, the bathroom door does not close or lock. The noise from the bar and the smokers outside the single glazed windows is terrible. ||||We requested private parking in advance, on arrival we where told to use the local car park which was full up. After driving around for 30 minutes trying to find a space I returned to the pub to be told the parking space is at No 26 you can use that !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ||||This place has seen better days, the staircase up to the rooms is not for the elderly or disabled, For 169 euros a night this is not value for money, it...
