A Decent Stay Overall

excellent hosts beautiful decoration perfect location surly host freezing room chemical smell

Harry and Mandy proved themselves excellent hosts. They catered to every need I had. The house featured beautiful decoration. The location was spot on, perfect for quick access to local shops.

The host was a bit surly. My room felt freezing cold. I couldn't adjust the thermostat. The chemical smell from the plug-in air fresheners seemed overwhelming. I found them unhealthy.

Acceptable, but Room for Improvement

chemical smell ground floor

The room size was generous, with fresh milk available in a fridge outside the room for making tea.

The lack of a ground floor room is a real issue for anyone with mobility problems. My room also had an overpowering chemical smell from plug-in air fresheners. It felt quite unhealthy (I guess someone thought it smelled nice).

The location was near the main attractions. I found free parking with a permit from the host. The breakfast included fresh juice.

My room faced the street and I heard some noise. The room lacked USB charging ports. The towels felt slightly thin.

convenient location secure bike

the location was convenient, near the harbour and restaurants. the room was comfortable and the breakfast was great. i appreciated that they could securely store our bikes.

the room was quite hot, even with the electric fan provided. it was fine. but a rack by the front door for shoes would be useful during busy times.
