Top place, so pleasant! Came with my wife for three nights. The room is neat, bed and sheets are super comfy. You get nice towels and really good breakfast! The bathroom is shared with the other bedroom but no issues there, the bedrooms were quiet as well, so we got a good night sleeps. You can cook in the kitchenette. The whole place is super clean and is basically a **** hotel. The owners are also really nice! We were so happy, definitely staying here next time we are around

Cute little spot in a leafy suburbia. Judy was a gracious host and very clear in her communications before and throughout our stay. There was plenty of options for breakfast (various types of bread, spreads and cereals) and the first location on our trip to have allergen friendly options too (gluten-free bread and alternative milks). The bedroom was very spacious, bathroom well stocked and a sitting room to enjoy the views. Excellent location and brilliant host.
