Acceptable stay
spacious room top rate wifi damaged toilet seat inadequate water
The room felt spacious, and the WiFi worked top rate. There was even a fridge. I found this useful. Alisha and her husband, the owners, seemed lovely and greeted me with a smile.
The toilet seat was already damaged before I arrived, and I reported it immediately. I also thought the water wasn't hot enough to run a bath. That was a pity!

perfect location spacious room bonus fridge friendly owner
The location was perfect! It was close to attractions and very convenient. The room was spacious and nicely decorated. A real plus. The included fridge was a welcome bonus for keeping drinks cool. I definitely used it. The owners were very friendly and helpful.
