    no elevators

    The absence of elevators can be a challenge, especially for those on the upper floors where stairs may be difficult. Limited room amenities, such as missing fridges or microwaves, could detract from convenience. Noise from the air conditioning units may disturb your sleep, especially if you're up on the top floor with limited views outside. Plus, I found the bathroom windows lacked sufficient blinds, which might be a concern for some guests.

    beautifully decorated room
    superb bed
    aqua park
    tricky steps

    We had such a lovely stay with a beautifully decorated room and a superb bed that made for perfect rest. The leisure options like the aqua park and cozy TV room were a blast! It was a bit tricky with the steps, but they helped with our bags, so it wasn’t a big deal—would definitely recommend staying here! 😊

    spacious rooms
    exceptional breakfast
    soundproofing issue
    signage issue
    neighbor noise

    The Victorian home captures a unique colonial vibe, making guests feel as if they've stepped back in time. Spacious rooms feature beautiful furnishings, and the daily breakfast is exceptional, with the best coffee served at your table. While there’s no soundproofing between rooms, it didn’t detract from the quaint, family-friendly atmosphere. However, a clearer sign for access points would be beneficial for easier navigation.

    Couple's Delight in Charm

    The hospitality from John and the crew was lovely, it felt like family, really. The old-world ambiance combined with modern amenities made everything just right, and I sipped on a great old fashioned during the social hour.

    It wasn't exactly a bargain but worth every dime given the experience.
