Excellent Stay in the City Center
new bathroomgreat locationeasy parkingdirty drawer
I stayed in the garden house. It was very nice. The bathroom was brand new and had a shower. The location was great. I found parking easily. There were recommendations for restaurants and coffee shops that I enjoyed.
I found some random clothes in different places in the house. The drawers contained a random pair of boxers and were dirty. I would not put my clothes in them.

I found the location superb. It was just beside the church and very close to the Main Street. The main bus station was only a third of a mile away. The bed was comfortable and i appreciated the facilities. Travel adaptors were available, a unique and helpful detail.
The television didn't work , only a minor inconvenience.

The room was clean and well-kept, and the bed provided a restful sleep. It was fitted with fresh linens and comfortable pillows, which enhanced the stay. Blackout curtains ensured a dark sleeping environment. The room temperature was easily adjustable with the thermostat.

The guesthouse has a great location very close to the iconic church. i found the self check-in process smooth and the rooms were warm. the kitchen had everything i needed to prepare my own food. It was a plus.
the facilities are adequate but a bit limited if you try to self cater. i found the duvet was short, more like the size for a cot. made it difficult to sleep comfortably.
