Wanted to use the jacuzzi at night but there was absolutely no hot water. Owner didn't believe me that the ice water was ice cold

Response from Lei on 21 May 2024
The guest called at 10:15pm, the owner confirmed if the correct way to use it because only the room reflects this problem, and then he was there at 10:30pm.

We enjoyed this unique property, great location in proximity to other attractions. Accommodating staff, clean room, patio etc. However there was no hot water for a shower or to wash dishes. Just a basic that shouldn’t be overlooked.

The check-in was poor. I had not received an email advising me of the details (it arrived after I had phoned the number on the door). However, Orla who was 'on reception' when we arrived was very pleasant and helpful. I thought the room dingy and run down and did not represent good value for money. Also the hot water was tepid at best for a shower at 0730. Overall I would not recommend this guest house

Really lovely property next to Historic Craigdarroch Castle and within walking distance to the beautiful gardens of the Government House. My room was on the top floor and was quiet and very clean. My only complaint was that the mattress and pillows could be upgraded. It was very convenient having communal kitchen facilities available for guest to use. I would definitely consider staying here again.

Loved the hotel! It was SO cute and charming, and my bedroom window looked right at the Craigdarroch castle!!! The only negative was there was no full length mirror anywhere in my room, which is a necessity when getting dressed to go out lol

Very comfortable stay in a cozy room. Suite was clean and windows opened to let in a cool breeze although neighbours could have had better control of their dog barking at early hours. No fault of the property in anyway and will absolutely book again on a future trip.

Parking is challenging so there were quite a few times I had to park 1-2 blocks from the entrance but it was free. This is an old property so you hear people walking around above you. There was one night where the people above my room had children which was loud and uncomfortable from a noise level but thankfully this was only one evening. So mostly quiet but I was worried at one point in my stay because noise carries in this property.

Wonderful heritage guest house! and right behind a castle. Very comfortable bed. Pleasant large lounge area and breakfast room. It was like stepping back in time. My only complaint was parking - not a lot of parking available close to the accommodation so I had to walk quite far with my bags. But - other than that I would DEFINITELY stay again and again.
