Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Brooks Guesthouse is often described as a cute and unique boutique hotel, centrally located near St Nicholas Market and within walking distance of the train station. Guests appreciate the well-decorated and comfortable rooms, sometimes mentioning the good showers and available space for luggage. Breakfast is a highlight, with freshly cooked options like eggs prepared to order; however, some guests have found rooms to be a bit small. The location is very convenient for exploring the city centre and the harbour.
