The Guest house was good value with well stocked kitchen. My room was of a good condition and layout. The only issue I had was my shared bathroom was down one level requiring me to lick my room each time I used it. Overall great location, reasonable price, excellent staff.

On checking in, the staff member was very helpful and carried our suitcases to the first floor for us. The room was clean and tidy and the beds were comfortable. Just a short walk from town so very convenient. Not so good, the extractor fan in the toilet was very noisy and went on for ages. The noise from the bar downstairs went on until very late.
