    Good location, clean rooms. Yes, it is a little dated as said in other reviews, but it's not bad. We had everything we needed to make breakfast and could rest properly each night. Great value for money.

    The room was very large and bed extremely comfortable. The shower had strong flow pressure with plenty of hot water. WiFi was strong with electrical sockets next to the bed. The owners were very helpful with late check-in, leaving luggage after...
