    I loved the elegant decor of my room and the stunning garden area, which made for a peaceful retreat. The accessibility of the common areas was ideal, allowing for easy movement and comfort during my stay.

    Bathroom drains could use better maintenance.

    The stay was lovely, and the elegant decor truly made it a peaceful retreat. I appreciated the accessibility of the common areas and felt very well taken care of by the friendly staff. The location was perfect, with local attractions and restaurants just a short walk away. Just a small note for improvement, bathroom drains could use better maintenance.

    cozy atmosphere

    Amazing place with free Wi-Fi, luggage storage, and a cozy bar area. I'll never forget how the staff offered me a cold drink in the heat during my first visit. Highly recommend it for a true home-like feel. I'm coming back for Christmas!

    cleanliness issue

    The architecture and decor were stunning, and we

    also appreciated the warm welcome from the staff. Our room was comfortable, but the bathroom left a bit to be desired in terms of cleanliness. Overall, a memorable experience with delicious breakfast options.

    great location
    slow breakfast service
    minor issue

    I had an awesome time with my friends at this beautiful guest house! We enjoyed the local sights with hop-on hop-off tours and loved coming back to a peaceful retreat. The staff are super friendly, and the breakfast was always a pleasant surprise with high-quality dishes. I'd definitely recommend it for its comfortable rooms and great location!

    One downside was the slow breakfast service. We had to wait a bit longer on a few occasions to get our food, which could be frustrating when you're eager to start your day.
