excellent breakfast and convenient location
vegan breakfast parking permit convenient location
the host, peter, was accommodating. he made sure my vegan breakfast requests were met each morning, which i found really thoughtful. i appreciated the parking permit provided, which simplified parking. the location was ideal, close to the ferry station and city center.
the steep hill leading to the guesthouse was a slight challenge.

adequate stay in the city center
central location easy access room change bedside table distant mirror limited space
the location was very central. it was easy to access main roads around the island. the host accommodated my room change request. i got the same room i stayed in before. the breakfast sets me up for the day. it was very good.
there was no bedside table. i have some things i need to put, like phones or glasses. i could only leave this things on the shelf by the kettle. i think the sink was in a corner of the bedroom. the mirror was distant and high, so shaving was difficult. the toilet space was very limited.
