Overall, good and clean

The room was functional for our needs, with a newly renovated and nice bathroom. However, the bedroom felt a bit tight for a couple, and there were no hangers for clothing or provided toiletries. It’s a good option if you’re looking for a quiet, no-frills place to rest. That said, check-in was a bit stressful—there were no clear instructions, and no one was there to greet us right at check-in time. Additionally, I thought I was booking a room within the guesthouse but was instead assigned a newer room with an independent entry, which was fine but seemed much smaller than the one I originally selected.

Incorrectly advertised.

We were disappointed about the trip. the young girl was nice when we arrived and showed us where breakfast would be in the morning. She also told us that it was help yourself cereals and tea or coffee, which was all we would have wanted. Unfortunately, we could not get into the room, as couldn't other guests who were expecting the same breakfast. My wife called the number we had and go a curt man who she thought was aggressively rude. He told her that they was no breakfast include. Hotels.com websites shows photos of the "breakfast area", and if you ask the question, the AI bot tells you there is breakfast. Was it worth the money? No, it was just a small room. Not as good as described.

Great place to stay

Brand new rooms. Close to city center. Plenty of safe, free parking across the street at the school lot. Slight confusion with rooms at check in, but they figured it out. Rooms are small, but more than enough for a night or two. Shower was fantastic! There is a central older house, and the two wings with new rooms. There was construction going on, but not a big deal to us.

We stayed in the brand new rooms which are small with limited furniture but a real good bathroom. Host is friendly and helpful. Bus stops nearby but run a little infrequent.

No reception on arrival. Property looked like a construction site. No instruction to be received or where to go. Had to call the mobile phone on the roadside sign. Rude manager who said twice we were welcome to go somewhere else. No fridge. Very small room. Totally unsatisfactory experience. Wotif also needs to make sure its suppliers are of quality. Will never use wotif again nor will I ever recommend this guest house.

Given room & the bathroom were new and hence in good shape, but the entry to them is quite shady. Also, there is No permanent physical attendent at the property! So for any request one will have to make some calls.

Aynetree Guest House Review

Hosts were very friendly and accessible. The section of the building where we stayed was newly built and clean. Work wasn't completely finished e.g. the walkway to the building wasn't finished and could be a potential hazard. They also need to change/update the photos on the Hotels.com site as they don't reflect the room we stayed in. The photos showed larger rooms and access to a dining area. The building may've had these facilities but was not where we stayed. However, the room we stayed was acceptable.

Quiet, comfortable, on bus line.

Nice, newly renovated room tucked away in the back of the property. Still some construction happening, so there was mud along the walkway to the back door, but the owner put down a plastic tarp to help some. The bath facilities were modern and worked well. The location was right on the bus line, so it was easy to get into the downtown area via bus. The parking was a bit tight, but we were to leave the car and take the bus downtown.
