Great digs in a great location
Great accommodation in a great location, just a short walk from the town and a short drive to the station or airport. The host was very helpful, with luggage and arranging onward taxis to the airport.

Nice, reasonable lodging
Our room had reasonable space for a short stay & a kitchenette that was nicely provisioned. It was also nicely located for our area-interest (1/2 day wine tasting tour). And it's within short driving distance to a few restaurants.

Property manager was very helpful. Nice clean and well appointed rooms. Street noise a bit much until later in the evening, but not bad (we were in a unit on the street).

Great stay.
Excellent. Ferry arrived in late and the manager very kindly made arrangements for us to check in after the office closed. The room was clean and the bed very comfortable with two different pillow choices per person. Aircon was great. Stayed 2 nights. Great stay. Would happily stay again.
