Staff were so friendly and helped with what ever they could and were very accommodating. Loved the hotel and the decor. Breakfast was the same but I think that was fine for my 3 night stay. Spotlessly clean and rooms very comfortable. Would highly recommend. Good location for trips and short walk into Georgetown.

It was ok…old hotel in the heart of Georgetown. Staff were great in efforts to make you comfortable while staying there. Beds a little hard and staying in the old town is maybe good for a night but we stayed 3 nights.

Location is great but the bed was uncomfortable. The mattress was HARD not just firm and the pillows had no support. Breakfast was cold and lacking. But the location is great to walk around Georgetown.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Good hotel and nice location. The room is big and I like the free breakfast too. Within walking distance to many eatery and it’s in the UNESCO area so nice to walk around The room comes with a big king size bed,chairs, table, wardrobe and coffee tea making facility. Downside is not many channels to choose from, the bed is a little hard and room is very dusty. When I go into my bed, I can see lots of dust flying around. Bathroom and amenities are good. AC is good and cold. Overall a good hotel but because of the bed may not stay again.

6/10 Good

This was a cute, rustic, safe hotel right in the middle of historic Georgetown. We ordered a ride through the hotel which never came. Everything was fine at the hotel except wifi was terrible. I spoke to the front desk and they have 4-5 wifi you can tap into but in the 36 hours we were there two of us could never get on. So if you're planning on wifi, it's not recommended here. Our room was smaller than an average small hotel we are used and it accesses the lobby/dining area. Maybe not for a long stay but otherwise everything else was fine.

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel has a unique charm, with a strong sense of history that can be felt, particularly as you walk up the stairs to reach the rooms. The location is excellent, conveniently situated within easy reach of all the main attractions. The staff are professional, attentive, and always available when needed. The breakfast is simple but effective, offering everything necessary to start the day well. Overall, I spent four fantastic days and would gladly stay here again.
