We really enjoyed our stay with Paula. It is conveniently located in a quiet street around 5 minutes walk from supermarkets and restaurants as well as the highway. All the facilities were just as described. It was also the first place we have stayed that asked us to comply with local recycling requirements- and actually informed us what these requirements were. And the Chocolate Banana Bread Paula made was delicious!

    Great location, newly renovated and pet friendly! Reception was so warm and welcoming! She made sure that a hot plate was available so I could cook, and arranged an early check in. I had a ground level suite which opens up to a patio and fenced back yard that’s enclosed so my dog could hang outside without a worry he’d wander off. Such an excellent value stay!
