    We loved the clean and comfortable room, with a tea/coffee station. The breakfast was delicious and the portions were generous. The hotel's location was convenient, not far from popular areas like campus square and melville 7th street.

    Everything great. Slow and inefficient wifi, limited TV channels.

    I had a very pleasant stay at this hotel. The room I stayed in was spacious and offered a beautiful view of the lush green garden, which was incredibly relaxing. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom had a lovely shower and a large bath with great water pressure. The hotel's attention to detail was evident with the cleanliness and the good Wi-Fi connection. The breakfast provided was delicious, and I particularly enjoyed the filter coffee.

    No improvements needed, everything was more than satisfactory.

    We had an amazing stay at this guest house. The room was spacious and comfortable with large windows overlooking lush gardens. The breakfast was elaborate and the filter coffee was a hit. The location was perfect with secure parking behind a remote-controlled roller door. We enjoyed the well-maintained swimming pool that was perfect for cooling off in hot weather.

    We didn't have any negative experiences during our stay.

    Enjoyed my Easter break at this cozy guest house. the room was spacious, and the bed was super comfortable. the breakfast had a variety of options and the portions were generous. the location was perfect with easy access to restaurants and shops. I appreciated the lovely garden view from my room.

    The wifi connection was a bit weak and kept cutting out. the shower temperature was inconsistent, and the water pressure was less than ideal.
