Welcoming friendly and helpful
The owner was really helpful and upgraded us to a larger room at no extra charge. The beds were really comfortable and the room felt cosy and welcoming. The owner also recommended the local hot river which was great!

I love it - it is clean and has a quiet location. I love the retro themed rooms which add character making it homely and unique much better than staying in some generic boring apartment.
