I booked a family unit with one double bed and two singles only go get there to one bed. The lady we called said we will have to pay extra for every person who will be sleeping in their unit. We had to fight for one more person and ended up looking for another guest house for the other two people yet we paid for the family unit.

Freezing in winter

The room had all the basics but wear and tear are evident. It was freezingly cold and even with the heating turned on, did not really heat up. The owners should really switch the heating on if guests are expected and not wait until their arrival. The only way to survive was to get into bed with all my clothes on and wearing my coat, with the electric blanket on. The guest house was recommended to us by relatives but we would not stay there again. It is probably pleasant enough in summer.
