This place just WOWED me. The room looked brand new and SO CLEAN. I loved the water, cookies. hot cocoa I found. The shower ROCKED, I want it at home. I really wish I had booked a longer stay.

The stairs are a little windey which is not ideal when you carry a big luggage, but i managed WELL.

adequate stay, noisy location

hot water good pressure thin walls adjacent rooms

the shower was great. it had good pressure and plenty of hot water.

The walls seemed thin. i could easily hear conversations and other noises from adjacent rooms. This made it difficult to relax, especially in the evenings.

Excellent Stay in a Stylish Guest House

rainfall shower easy check-in quiet location

The room had a rainfall shower. Snacks were available, which I liked. Contactless check-in was very easy and prompt. I found the location quiet, though easily walkable to town.

Street parking sometimes required a short walk.

Location

The guesthouse sits slightly away from the main area, offering a peaceful setting. A short walk led to the town center, providing convenient access to shops and restaurants. Transportation hubs are also within easy reach.
