Simple but pleasant guest house

Helpful staff, very nice gentleman would greet you and would also make a quick breakfast which comprised of Bacon and Eggs. The room was clean and had AC for the warmer nights. During the day some building work in the property next door did make a bit of noise but they never worked at unsociable hours.
