"We didn't realize this was a room in a home, not a hotel at all. Also, the listing said it was the closest "hotel" to the airport at 2.4km, but it was actually 12.5km. And not a hotel at all. Perfectly nice guest room. Nice owner. But it is a guest room in a home, not a hotel as it was advertised."

"the hotel is in a good location, easy to find with good secure parking. The staff were efficient and helpful, and the room and shower etc were clean and comfortable. My only very minor gripe is the quality of the food - it was freshly cooked for me, but wasn't very good... I didn't have breakfast so I can't comment on that. Would i stay again? Yes"
