A good location in town. Not too far from the hotel where breakfast is provided

Unclean and dirty. Floors covered in stains. Strong smell of mold in bedrooms. My partner and I were unable to stay here due to the health concerns with the mold, especially as one of us is asthmatic.
Hotel staff at the nearby remote check in desk were friendly and accommodating, and did facilitate moving us to a new location for the night.
I unfortunately cannot recommend this particular guesthouse, however the other affiliated hotels are fine.

This guesthouse will bring you back into another timeline. There are so many interesting history pictures and pieces on the walls, it’s really neat to see. It’s a lovely old building that reminds me of anyone’s grandparents house. With it being older though, it’s a little outdated and not in the greatest shape. The carpets are quite dirty and stained but we had no problem wearing socks and just looking past it. The shower and bathrooms are quite small. There are plenty of common areas and places to hang out.

The facility was immaculate. Breakfast was very good. There was fresh pineapple, melon. Hot food such as scrambled eggs and bacon were on the daily breakfast buffet. The shared bathrooms were clean and tidy

It’s in a good location downtown, but you have to walk a few blocks from the main hotel where you check in and have breakfast. Nice breakfast though. There’s no staff on site. Street parking is a little tricky—we got lucky

Chambres aménagées dans une vieille maison avec un parquet qui craque à chaque pas et avec des murs très fins. On entendait les personnes prendre leur douche à 2 pièces de là…

Kelpo matkustajakoti, vaikka vanha talo
Hyvä yöpyminen, vanha talo, mutta mukava ja hiljainen paikka. Aamiainen lähihotellilla.

Sweet and Simple
It was old fashioned and quite sweet. It was reasonably comfortable but the fact that it is managed by a larger hotel takes away a bit of the charm. Having said that, the breakfast, which was served in the hotel, was really quite nice.
