A bit out of town center (but public transport right at the front door). Bathroom was rather small, which is the sole reason for 4 stars instead of 5 Breakfast made to order as you like and excellent.

To start with first; the rooms were super neat upon arrival. Everything looked well taken care of. Good service provided and they cleaned the room almost every day. The breakfast is well prepared and you have a reasonable choice. Everywhere this is a perfect overnight stay(s) if you are looking for good service, friendly people who serve you and the rooms look super good, this is the place for you. And you are an hour's walk from the center and you can get there by bus in about 5 minutes. Buses stop everywhere at the relevant bus shelter almost next to the Kingsley guesthouse. And you only have to walk 10 minutes to the nearest center.

Very welcoming, great rooms with plenty of space and en suite and the breakfast is perfect. Right next to a bus stop to take you into the centre of the city, and the owners are more than happy to help with things to do. Loved our stay.
