Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The guest house was in a good location just off the promenade. Room was spotless and in very good condition. Bed was very comfortable and made daily. Room was well appointed. Breakfast each morning was high quality and everything was freshly made. Dora the proprietor was very attentive and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble if needed some assistance. I would definitely stay there again if in Douglas and would recommend to family and friends.

Excellent service

Great location, lovely hostess who always tried to go above and beyond for all her guests. Breakfast was lovely and an unexpected surprise as we forgot it was included. Wifi was great and included. Felt safe with front door security. Parking options are available nearby (please bare in mind its a disk zone so parking outside is limited but found that there are other options available nearby). Only recommendation would be bigger beds as found it to be quite small for the two of us.
