Sweet rooms with a stylish touch. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. Staff is kind and helpful. The highlight is the coffee shop downstairs.

Need a bit of maintenance here and there. Would be nice to have a few tea bags next to the kettle for a night tea ( when the coffee place is closed)

The cafe below the accommodation makes breakfast very convenient. Room was clean and hosts were responsive and helpful.

The WiFi wasn't working properly quite often.

It was not only tastefully done, but also clean, airy and comfortable. I liked the simplicity and minimalism design.

Nothing

This is a quiet guest house relatively close none-the-less to city centre, tucked away down a dead-end side street and sitting above a popular cafe. The room was sizeable but more tired looking and basic than the photos implied - and that was disappointing. The manager was very friendly, helpful and efficient. We were very quickly checked in and he checked our ordered car was on time for taking us to the airport and that we arrived safely, despite it being past midnight! The downstairs cafe is great for breakfast and probably lunch (didn't have the latter here) though the service was a little slow. The enclosed outdoor garden is nice, a pleasant and green, bird-song filled oasis in a busy city-scape beyond the walls! Shower was high-pressure and super-hot. Wi-fi connection was good - when it worked. Like most places in SL, evening-time seems to be biggest drain on wi-fi reliability, and here was no exception.

As indicated above, this place did not meet our expectations based on the marketing photos. It felt a little tired. Holes in the bed sheets, tired paint work, thin basic room doors, minimal decor. The description on Booking.com implied there was various facilities exclusive to the room, but in fact they were instead in a shared cupboard on the landing. An incessant on-off thrumming water pump going 24-7 was also bothersome to get used to when trying to sleep. I mentioned it to the manager but he didn't seem to know what it was. No mosquito nets on the bed (nor in other rooms from what I could see). They fumigated the cafe at least once in our stay.
