Exceptional

Situated in a nice location, quiet, close to highway. The hosts are extra nice couple, staffs are friendly. The single rooms are a bit disappointed, with proper window or ventilation and there is no aircon. Otherwise, was nice to stay for the night as a stopover.
Eddie and his team were great hosts. It felt like we had known them for years, they were warm and welcoming. Their botique hotel, is beautiful, clean and relaxing.
Eventhough my booking indicated the breakfast was included, at checkout i was charged for it. The room was large, but smelled stale and it was very cold.
Great place to stay, the restaurant across the road is lovely. Great staff very helpful and attentive, beautiful guesthouse with all the necessary comforts. I would definatley stay again
