    exceptional hospitality
    satisfying breakfast
    dated decor
    minor inconveniences

    Generous hospitality truly stood out, with a delightful breakfast that fueled our adventures to notable local attractions, alongside Michael's impressive guitar skills. The room was large and clean, complemented by thoughtful touches like tea and coffee facilities. A minor drawback was the slightly dated decor in the room, though its functionality remained intact.

    delicious breakfast
    helpful service

    Perfect for families needing a break

    The hot breakfast was the best I've ever had, set me up for the day. They arranged a car to the cruise ship for us, which made everything so much easier.

    It was a bit pricey but you know what? Worth every penny.

    slow wifi

    A true home away from home

    We loved our stay! The staff were super friendly and made us feel right at home. The breakfast was just amazing. Our room was cozy, perfect for our family of three. Just wished the WiFi was a bit better, but honestly, it didn't ruin our vibe at all. We can't wait to come back next time!

    good stay but room for improvement

    The room was cozy and well-decorated, creating a warm ambiance. The availability of a kettle for tea was a lovely touch that made our stay more comfortable.

    The noise from the street was a bit disruptive during the night.

    gated parking
    clean bathroom
    friendly service

    the west bank has a perfect location if you're using the ferry. it’s just a 3-minute drive to the port. my standard single room was slightly dated but functional, with a clean bathroom and ready coffee and tea. the gated parking was a nice bonus, and the host was super friendly.

    spacious room
    friendly family
    steep staircase

    The room was spacious with a big comfy bed and a nice desk to work at. The family running the place was super helpful and friendly. I loved spending time in the lovely garden area, perfect for chilling with a book or enjoying my morning coffee. Just a heads up, the climb to my room was a bit steep, so pack your best walking shoes! 😊
