a pleasant stay near the center

convenient location helpful host common kitchen street parking

The location was great. I walked to the city center with ease. neil, the host, gave me many tips for local spots. i especially liked the tea and coffee available in the common kitchen. i found the common kitchen very helpful to make a quick cuppa, it was really useful.

the parking area behind the guest house filled up quickly. i had to find street parking, which took a little extra time.

nice size helpful owner homely spot unavailable parking cigarette smell challenging check-in

the room was a nice size. the owner let us drop off our luggage a bit early. there was a coffee, tea, and cereal spot just outside our room, very homey.

Online, it said there was parking available, but that wasn't true. there was a very strong cigarette smell in the foyer as i walked in. It was off-putting!!! check-in was a challenge.

The room had a mini-fridge. That was helpful.

Check in was substandard. I was taken to the wrong room initially. moving later was necessary, this proved inconvenient.
