Best Hotel Room Stay Ever!
Great location. Close to downtown Nelson just off of Baker Street. Very quiet at night. Close proximity to all services. Owners had stocked my suite with coffee, pasta, sauce. Etc. I would recommend this location to anyone traveling to Nelso. Cheers

Very cute little guest house. Different apartments in an old, historic house. You can't beat the location. You are a block off of the main street of downtown and can walk almost anywhere. Communication with the staff is excellent.

Check-in was a breeze. Spacious Veranda to enjoy the early Summer rain from in the evening. The suite was well-appointed and comfortable. Perfect for a small family like us. Kids had a wonderful time also.

Kathy Ann (the owner) was very nice. Readily available with any questions we had. The attention to detail in the room such as the furnishings, beddings, coffee and tea for our use as well as a basket of goodies (olive oil, noodles and sauce were a nice touch. Especially if you get in late and haven't had dinner. The location was wonderful, right in the center of town. Everything in walking distance. We would definitely stay there again. Highly recommend!!!

Lovely retro Victorian house, just around the corner from Baker street shops and restaurants but on a quiet side street. Large rooms, comfortable beds, well equipped with good coffee and a pasta meal provided by the owners. Good communication. Very good place to stay.
