Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the guest house was a mixed bag of experiences. The rooms were spotless and well-furnished, but a bit small and challenging to access on the top floor. The service was accommodating and efficient, yet the location required some effort to reach the city center. The dining options were varied but lacked some specific choices. Overall, a decent place with both positives and negatives.
The guest house offers comfortable and clean rooms with strong Wi-Fi and a tea kettle but lacks noise isolation. The location, slightly away from the city center, is convenient with easy access to transportation options. The dining experience is satisfying with a traditional menu, though some variety could enhance the offering. Overall, a well-furnished and spotless accommodation providing value for money.
The hotel is conveniently located with plenty of nearby bus stops and within walking distance of many attractions. The rooms, though small, were well-organized and suitable for a family of 4. The dining experience lacked a cooked breakfast option, and there were some areas that appeared tired due to a change in ownership.
