"I loved it overall and will be back. The minor issues would not keep me away or keep me from recommending it."

8.0

It felt comfortable. Easy to access.

Nothing yall can control but other guests did not flush the toilet which made it gross at times. The heat was very high at many points during my stay.

"Great location and wonderful staff"

10.0

Friendly staff and quick response on Booking.com messaging system.

The common shared bathroom door was a bit squeaky, can use a bit of oil. Other than that everything was great!

I stayed at a private room with shared bath. The rooms are a bit small. Nice quaint atmosphere. Fantastic breakfast and ideal location. Staff is very friendly and helpful.

"Quiet, peaceful with delicious food."

8.0

The breakfast was excellent. Great place to relax. Very quiet atmosphere.

Though we knew going in that there would be shared bathrooms. Brace yourself for differences in cleanliness standards. Nothing terrible, just minor-like laundry pile?
