Fantastic Stay with Fine Views

efficient process clean room harbour view coffee facilities

I found the self-check-in process very efficient, and communication was friendly by telephone. The room was looked super fresh and cozy. the view of the harbor was beautiful (it overlooked ferries departing for the islands!). I also appreciated the hot chocolate, tea, and coffee-making facilities provided, they were a nice touch.

The walls seemed a bit thin. I could occasionally hear other guests.

My room included a very comfortable king-size bed and a lovely hot shower which contributed positively to my overall experience. The room was also clean as new, with a relaxing and pleasant environment, and this helped me unwind after a day of exploring.

a wonderful stay!

beautiful guest house clean smell easy parking

i found the guesthouse beautiful! it was tastefully renovated and everything was super clean. i was charmed by the fresh smell. the room had everything i needed for a short stay. parking was really easy because there's a big lot just a short walk away. the bed was great, and the bathroom was nice!!!

the walls felt thin, and i could hear some noise from other guests, such as coughing and talking at times. it wasn't a HUGE deal, but some soundproofing would definitely help.
