“This guesthouse presents a contrast of experiences; while the decor and garden create a welcoming atmosphere, some might find the location less secure, which detracts from the overall tranquility. The daily breakfast and friendly staff member, Margaret, are definite highlights, but the property needs more attention to detail to assure a consistently positive impression.”
