    If/when we return to the Isle of Man we will definitely book here again!

    Liked : The owner, Kevin, was helpful and accomodating. This is a Victorian era B&B with beautifull decorated rooms, comfortable beds, great shower and a fabulous breakfast! The dining room uses linen table cloths and comfy chairs. Breakfast is cooked to order and since we had to leave early on the last day to catch the ferry, we got a take out breakfast that we ordered the night before. Great location, walkable to everything. We had a view of the sea from our room.

    Decent place to stay but not charming.

    Liked : The location is great. Next to the Gaiety Theater and the promenade. Breakfast was ample but not extraordinary

    Disliked : The rooms and facilities are shabby. This morning I was greeted by an extremely large spider in my bath towel. Bed was extremely soft and uncomfortable. Television didn’t work well and the remote button were worn out

    Excellent location and staff

    Liked : Staff were friendly, welcoming and full of good ideas. Excellent choice for breakfast and location was superb.

    Disliked : Mattress was a bit soft for my personal taste and curtains let too much light in, so woke up early in morning (was almost mid summer so wouldn't be so much of a problem at other times of year)
