a slightly underwhelming stay

cramped bathroom weak shower pressure
the room felt smaller than expected. i struggled to find space for my things. the bathroom was quite cramped (it reminded me of an afterthought) and could use an update. the shower pressure was also quite weak.

clean and well-located guesthouse

family room ground floor ensuite bathroom great location
I stayed in a family room located on the ground floor. It had an en-suite bathroom. The room was very clean and suitable for our needs. I found the location to be great as it is situated at the northern end of town.
the room had a bed that slanted backwards, it was not the most comfortable sleeping arrangement
