“Great value for money. Prices were reasonable and attention to detail was evident. The location was convenient, a short walk downhill to the waterfront and city centre. Staff were friendly and service excellent. Basic amenities were well-maintained, and our room had a nice balcony with a wonderful view. Breakfast was fantastic, especially the coffee – the best we had on our trip.”

9.2Verified guest

“Our location was great with easy access to the city centre and waterfront. The view from our room was impressive – we could watch both sunrise and sunset. The bathroom could use updating, and breakfast at the communal table was less private than hoped. Nevertheless, our friendly host Chad made up for it, even arranging a private tour guide, Derek, who showed us the must-see spots.”

“A hidden gem with Victorian charm that made us feel at home. Rooms were spacious and comfortable, and we loved the balcony with its wonderful view. Location was perfect – not far from the city centre, and we walked to the V&A Waterfront. Staff were incredibly friendly and served the best coffee of our trip. We appreciated the attention to detail, from decor to the terrace and pool area. Excellent value for money – highly recommend.”
