This guest house is conveniently located near the train station, the walk was about five minutes. my double room ensuite had air conditioning, a great bonus. the cooked breakfast was very tasty. I especially liked the sausages. i could park right outside. This made loading and unloading easy.
the tv remote was tricky to use, though i eventually figured it out.
