“A great place to stay.”
We stayed on the top floor and the view was amazing; the room was spacious, warm and comfortable. It’s a bit dated, but overall it’s been well maintained.

Everything was fine, but the property is closing down.

The place is spot on, spotless and neat, and the host was lovely – a great stay overall.

The location and views were great and we were close to good restaurants, but the light outside the door over the stairs kept us awake half the night, and even the blinds didn’t help.

The bed was super comfortable and the location was great, yet the stairs were a bit tricky when it was raining and we had heavy luggage.
