Wonderful
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
It's a nice, affordable place to stay, and I will recommend it to others. I gave 4 stars for Property condition and facilities because there is a broken chair in the hall, and it seems the paint of the doors is quite old.
The rooms are small but clean and comfortable.
Friendly atmosphere, staff and patrons. Great location. This is an excellent budget friendly place to stay in Nelson.
