The cooked-to-order breakfast was carefully portioned, but the self-service options were limited. The cook seemed overwhelmed handling both cooking and payments.

The breakfast was somewhat of an issue, with a limited offering and having to ask for it on the second day. However, it was still a great treat and a good start to the day.

The guesthouse is a cozy spot on Broad Street, offering a peaceful stay despite its location on a busy road. The rooms provide comfort but may not be ideal for a family of four as advertised. The service is exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff members. The location is convenient for exploring the city and easily accessible by car or bus. The breakfast, while nice, could use some variety. Overall, a pleasant stay with a few minor drawbacks.
