This is a unique property in a great location. We have stayed here 2x before.
But needs more cleaning and fresh paint and general maintenance on a regular basis. Which is not happening.
Love the wee balcony with flowers.
Would stay again but would love to see improvements.

It's very small but charming! The bed takes up most of the main room, but the jaucuzzi tub in the corner is a bonus! It's conveniently located near the water front, shops, restaurants, and a nice park. The only issue was having to drive 3.2km to a restaurant, to get the key. The first two employees at the restaurant didn't know what I wanted and seemed to speak very little English. I would strongly recommend an electronic coded lock to avoid this runaround!

We had a great weekend at this quaint inn, designed to evoke a sense of nostalgia while still adequately equipped with facilities, all at a reasonable price that offers superb value for money.
The service was well calibrated from pre-check in with the property reaching out to inform about key collection to the time of check out with swift positive response to our request for late check out.
The jet tub in the room adds a touch of romance to couple choosing to spend private quiet time, while the balcony lends a tranquil setting away from the main street, with occasional greetings from the friendly folks from the neighbourhood.

This is a quaint and charming property, also inconvenient and annoying. Maybe built by the owner as a special project. It is one room with bed and alcoves for jetted tub (didn't work) and bathroom (functional, but small, no shelves or drawers). Lovely location but some maintenance really needed. There were no instructions for check in/out and the owner/manager was hard to locate. If you don't mind all this and looking for something unusual in a great spot, go for it!

A very unique and cute property. Was comfortable and had a cute little deck with grape vines and plants around it to make it very private. Walkable to shops and restaurants.

This little suite is adorable and a perfect spot for a little getaway!
The shower pressure was lacking but honestly not a huge issue.
We will definitely be back!

If you’re looking for something unique and quirky, you’ll love it.

Charming suite, very quiet and clean. It does have a large bathtub, but due to water restrictions in this quaint town we did not use it. We would stay here again.

Was a beautiful place. The cleanliness was not what I expected for a luxury hotel. We had to clean hair out of the bathtub and found crumpled up tissue by the coffee machine. Other than that the place was beautiful.

I loved this adorable little place!!! It is such a unique experience. The whole place was sparkling clean, the bed was super comfy and the hot tub had great powerful jets and worked perfectly. There’s a cute little side patio with beautiful flowers. I would definitely recommend this place :)
