Jenny was such a warm and welcoming host. She greeted me on the day of check-in and kindly explained everything to me. I would see her looking after the place throughout the day, even when some guests didn’t clean after themselves after using the kitchen. Location is perfect, within walking distance to the downtown area but still quiet enough. All the guests were very considerate and I was able to catch up with some sleep in the morning after coming back from the tours at 2AM.

We stayed at Jenny's for four nights during March break 2026. Our party was three people and we had a separate room and bed for my special needs son which was great. We had access to a kitchen which we used to cook and store food which saved us money. It was situated one block south of the main street. We were able to park our car on the street in front of the house and got a free three day parking pass from the City thanks to Jenny's suggestion. She was a friendly and very accomodating host. In all very good value for the price in a town where hotel accomodations are very expensive. Thank you Jenny!

Owner was lovely but the location is not for business travelers. More suitable to backpackers or those comfortable with hostel conditions ie shared toilets & bathrooms. Location was very convenient, walking distance to many amenities.
