The room I expected was not available so I was offered alternative top floor accommodation. I was only there for one night so it did the job. Don't think I would want a multi-day stay. Excellent breakfast.

This BnB was in a fantastic location for walking into the city centre. The owners couldn't have been more accommodating and a great breakfast was had. My only issues was that the bedding seemed dirty and the bed was old and felt like it was going to break everytime I moved. Also in the twin room the bathroom door was broken and wouldn't close.

Felt like home!
I was welcomed by the owner, and he was so nice and answered all my questions about the city and transport that I had. He makes the best breakfast with fresh-pressed orange juice. I would definitely recommend you to say there!!

Clean, quirky BnB
Jerry is a great host, very friendly and makes a mean full irish breakfast. Sure, the stairs are crooked and the floors are slanted, but the rooms are spotless and location is pretty handy. No coffee/tea amenities in the room, and I wouldn't recommend a stay here if you're hard of walking, but otherwise it's a good spot to lay your head at the end of the day. Jerry gave great advice on where to go and where not to go, and was very welcoming. Free wifi too.

I booked for one night and when I arrived I was told there was no room at the hotel and I was moved to a hotel across the street. This new hotel was not up to much of a standard. All in all, not a very good experience.

Sendt til andet hotel
Jeg blev afvist meget uhøfligt og fik besked på at jeg var flyttet til et andet hotel tæt på. Her havde de ikke fået korrekt information om mit ophold, hvorfor det tog lang tid at få mit værelse.

Mukava yöpyminen
Kun kaipaa matkalleen b&b paikkaa, jossa yöpyä, siisti huone, hyvä wc/kylppäri, hyvä ystävällinen palvelu, aamiaista. Hieman sivussa ihan keskustasta, mutta kuitenkin hyvin lähellä ydintä. Rautatieasema ihan vieressä ja bussiasema myös aivan lähellä.

Trotz der zentralen Lage am Bahnhof, war das Zimmer sehr ruhig. Die Räume in der 1.Etage sind neu renoviert. Der Service ist sehr gut und äußerst nett. Das Frühstück War mehr als ich essen konnte und sehr lecker.

Hyggelig vertskap på B&B-hotellet. Kunne tenkt meg en litt bedre beliggenhet ved et slikt opphold, ettersom jeg reiste alene og var i Operaen om kvelden.

Als B&B nicht zu empfehlen.
Hotel liegt am Bahnhof, daher sehr laut. Frühstück war okay. Zimmer sehr klein. Eher eine Massenunterkunft als ein B&B.
