Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Comfortable room (ambience 'slightly dated/well used'), containing kitchenette and all the gadgets we wanted. The wooden upstairs walkway to our room seemed slightly shaky but in reality wasn't a problem. The location is excellent, at the heart of the town and close to the ferry pier.
An older facility but well maintained. Comfortable bed and nice place to stay. Very tight parking especially for medium sized cars. Very close and convenient to shops and ferries.

Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Great place to stay, definitely will again in the future. Very convenient
Property was in a great location. The area was quiet. Affordable, yet spacious. We were able to make some of our own meals with the use of the fridge, stove and microwave that were provided.
Minor concerns: lightbulb missing in the storage off the bathroom, a few carpet stains, the hot water tap needs to be locked in place as it turns when you turn it on.

Very close to shopping and food places. It needs an upgrade like the bathroom facilities. The drainage in bath was not good . It took a while before it drained.
Overall the property was nice. The lady at the front did not speak English so she had to call someone to translate. Not a big deal. They were very nice. The beds were a bit worn and there was no shower curtain on the shower. There also was no fan in the bathroom so it could get very steamy.
The location was excellent but the whole property was a little run down and could do with some maintenance. We we in an upstairs room and the railing on the stairs was very very loose
