Third time staying with Shirley which speaks for itself really! Copying my second review here! Shirley is a wonderful host - very communicative in making sure arrival / key exchange goes well and everything is convenient. Room and bathroom are very clean, and the room and bed are super comfy. An easy bus in and out of the town centre. Thanks for a great stay again!

A lovely, comfortable room, and the shower was great in my bathroom! Shirley was a fantastic host - very welcoming, great communication, and understanding and helpful when I had trouble finding her place, and then an issue with my card reader. Good location: it's a short easy bus ride or longer walk into town, and there's shops etc nearby. Thanks so much Shirley!

Chelsea had a great stop over stay and would recommend Shirley as a host. The place was clean, comfortable and had everything you need.
