Cozy Room.
We arrived late in the night as our train was delayed, but there was someone at the reception to acknowledge our booking and guided us to our room on the first floor up a narrow flight of stairs. At first we were surprised at the small size of our room, but being tired we dropped off to sleep in the comfy beds. This guesthouse is really a hostel with private rooms as well.
Later we appreciated the compactness of our private room as it had a small table big enough for my laptop, a small fan and lamp, a shelf to keep stuff and a coat rail with about ten hangers, and a small cabinet in one corner of the room. There was a common room at the lobby where one could watch TV and also had two workstations and an ironing board. Free tourist literature was available in the bookshelves. The washrooms were shared ones just adjacent to our room and provided with soap, shampoo, tissues and toilet paper.
There was even a community kitchen where we would cook and have our meals and saved a lot of money by having one meal in the hostel. However the laundry and dryer were not working and we had to visit a laundromat about a 10 minute walk away. Parking is available in an open ground outside the hostel.
Many of the attractions, shopping places and harbour are nearby at Cowbay and Downtown and we would easily walk the distance. The beautiful Sunken Garden is very close and we would often walk through the garden to reach Cowbay in quick time.
We enjoyed our stay at the hostel and would definitely come back again.
