Review: This is a nice place with great hosts providing good service and authentic smiles. It's a local business that gives you a certain feeling... it's something of the comfort and coziness you have when staying with friends. On the practical side: the rooms are large, nice and include all necessary amenities. The place is located at a 10 minutes walk from the city, and 5 minutes walk from the Greyhound bus terminal./ Port of Airlie. For dinner, we recommend you to try their restaurant.
