We have stayed many times at black dolphin and were looking forward to renovation. Very disappointed, no drawers anywhere in room ,table and chairs outside only (we had inside and outside before). Side tables too small and easy to knock over, no drawers. Two camping chairs made us laugh. Light fixture cord dangerously low and a safety hazard.cord
