The room and common areas were very clean. The kitchen area has dishes, pots, cutlery, a fridge, sink and some cooking supplies available for guests to use, plus a great coffee machine. The staff were very pleasant and kind. We enjoyed our stay for one night.

Comfortable stay in a clean place. A few issues for wheelchair access- we stayed in a regular room because unfortunately the owner did not realize that we had requested an accessible room. The bathroom was very small and there was a lip to access the shower with very little space to access the toilet and shower. There was no plastic chair available to use in the shower. Breakfast was left in the fridge in a box- cold buns weren’t great. Kitchen was bright with good amenities.

The staff was very helpful and pleasant. The guesthouse was clean and welcoming. We could walk around town from the guesthouse even though the town was small. There was 1 restaurant and a small grocery store. I would stay there again if I were back in the area.

Serviceable, and no less than I expected. I slept well. As others have said, the evening friendliness was remarkably more friendly than the morning friendliness.

Basic and functional hotel for a roadtrip

This was likely one of the smallest rooms I stayed in during my trip, but it was functional and clean. Windows, as you can see in the pictures are slim so the room feels a little cramped. Bathroom is also small but up to date, clean and functional. The hotel sends out an email with a code to open up a key locker with your key in it, if you arrive after hours. Alternatively, you can communicate with them using a ring doorbell. So you can just do your trip and not have to worry about arriving at specific time. Hotelroom had a smart TV with an active Netflix account for some reason, so I was able to watch a show to unwind before bed. Breakfast was basic, nothing out of the ordinary, compared to the other places I stayed at during my roadtrip. Staff seems reserved, but happy to help if anything is needed. I would stay here again when passing through. It was quite comfortable,

Fine for overnight stay

Free parking outside: shared lounge and dining area where you can help yourself to coffee machine - thought the coffee was good. We had twin room at back which was quiet and had black out roller blind which was quite good but still lets light in on sides and bottom if you get easily disturbed. Beds were comfortable but duvets too hot for summer. The reading lights mounted above the pillows makes sitting up in bed difficult which could have been avoided by better positioning. The tv only had a few channels working - reported it and was hopefully going to be fixed after we left; apparently there are supposed to be lots of channels. The bathroom is small but does the job. Unfortunately the pull around shower curtain and lip on the floor does not prevent water getting onto the rest of the floor and the extractor fan doesn’t work that effectively. Breakfast is a self service arrangement with a box in the fridge containing juice, rolls, local doughnuts and bananas. Ham, cheese and spreads as well as cereals available along with coffee. Place had a friendly vibe.
