Disliked: Room comfort
This was my first stay at the guesthouse, so I can't make comparisons. I stayed on the first floor, and there were four bedrooms with two beds each (? Not sure. There are two shower rooms (there are no shelves or hanging space, so you cannot bring your towels or personal items). The bathroom is so small that it is difficult to move around, and there is only one for four bedrooms. (Probably at least eight guests)

The only surprise was the website indicated a restaurant on the premises which is not accurate.. The room we chose was new (or newly renovated) with a lot of space and clean.. it was great.

Property while slightly outdated with shared bathrooms was clean and comfortable with a great restaurant next door. It was difficult finding our room at first that could definitely be improved.

Extremely overpriced, shabby guest house. Our room was awful - just beds and nothing else. No chair, no table, no shelf, nothing at all.

We had an issue with adding a payment to a reservation and we were met after hours at the door by the property owner. After finding out that we may not be incredibly comfortable with a shared bathroom, she offered an upstairs private apartment that slept our whole party. Great customer service and very kind lady. We were thankful for her generosity and flexibility!

This was a self check-in, where there was a post-it with our name and room number. Everything was clean and nice, my only nit-pick is on the kitchen, they only had 2 stove rings, and they were 4 different groups in the tiny kitchen, so we had to wait a while to start cooking.

Insufficient bathroom and kitchen capacity

Not what we expected. Too many people sharing bathroom, toilet and kitchen. Kitchen only had 2 cooking rings for 10 rooms. Only one toilet and bathroom for 4 rooms on ground floor. Upstairs rooms had to come out of building to get to ground floor to use kitchen. Room smelt of stale fish due to proximity of harbour...not hotels fault to be fair. Tap in room sink dripped all the time. Poor sound insulation. However easy to find, warm and comfy bed. Hotel in much worse vondition than photos on website show. Kind and helpful staff though think they are not based on site. Parking outside was plentiful.
