"Simple - no frills but perfect"

10.0

With a name like this, how could this not be a stop over on our honeymoon ! Bed was comfortable, shower was hot, plenty of parking, fresh eggs to buy at reception. Big communal kitchen with all crockery & utensils. Basic, but that is reflected in the price.

The kitchen facilities were amazing! Convenient location between the supermarket and centre of town. Amazing price for a comfy bed and a great view of the snowy mountains.

"Clean, convenient, all you need without being fancy."

8.0

It had everything we needed. Handy location lovely views, great kitchen facilities. Good unfussy accommodation. Could take a group, family or couple.

There’s nothing really that I didn’t like, I don’t expect budget perfection. But I’d love to go and do some gardening for the property!

"Отличный вариант для пары ночевок, с ограниченным бюджетом."

8.0

Очень классные хозяева, отличный вариант в соотношении цена/качество, особенно в высокий сезон. Скромно, но зато хорошее расположение, хороший душ и все рядом по очень скромной цене. Матрас мягкий, кому-то этот нюанс может быть важным. Кстати, есть отопление в комнате. Спасибо!

Все было хорошо.

地理位置好,性价比超高。 到intercity bus站及到观鲸换票点都是10分钟左右步行。 厨房非常干净。比许多著名的青旅都干净。 老板娘还把超市购物卡借给我们用,可以省点钱。

"Value for money"

8.0

Great value for money. Bed was comfy, shower was good and the heater warmed up the room nicely. We only needed a bed to sleep in, as we were catching the ferry early the next morning. Restaurants were just a short walk away from the accommodation. Very friendly and helpful proprietors.
