Traveling with teenagers is always hard to get them moving quickly. This place kept their restaurant open for us both on our night of arrival and the next morning. Their staff are exceptional. Only thing I would add would be hair conditioner in the bathroom.

The property description was misleading. When it says parking, it means in a public, in street carpark. Staff on arrival was not very helpful. Lots of questions needed to be asked. At check out, noone was available so needed to leave them on the unattended front desk. It also is vague about the breakfast. It is a cold buffet only. No hot food. The room was clean, modern and comfortable.

Great stay!

We had a wonderful stay here! It was a very cute hotel in a good location and very quiet. Several restaurants nearby. We had been traveling for a few weeks and they were so kind to let us use the laundry room to do a few loads of laundry! The Continental breakfast was really good as well. This hotel is right above a grocery store which was very convenient as well!

My family's short stay at the Kinvara Guesthouse was decent after a rocky start. Our initial room absolutely reeked of heavy perfume and the smell of smoking--although it's designated strictly for non-smoking--with the window wide open, chilling the room with cold air. It was clear they had been trying to disguise the smell, and it made my wife nauseous. Upon notification of the issue, the annoyed (owner? manager?) sent us back to the front desk, where the on-duty employee gave a lot of attitude to make the room change...in a mostly-empty property. The stay was mostly fine otherwise, except for the same employee at breakfast the next morning, removing items early and then again making a dramatic big deal of bringing milk back out (it was still minutes before designated end of mealtime). We were nice, polite and considerate all along, so I have no idea what caused such frustration for this man, but customer service apparently isn't his strong suit. If the face of the property handled things differently, I'd give this guesthouse a 4-star review.
