beautiful stay

Beautiful stay small part but noteworthy there was an undertone of presumption upon greeting the owner i felt she had presumed so much before i arrived and to be fair i had also presumed alot i was surprised that a patron was camped in his van next to my car it seem a little contradictory

Rules are strict, which is ideal. Everything was kept really clean and the other guests were very quiet. Price point is perfect for those who need a place to keep their stuff while they are out and about for the whole day. I'll certainly be going back there when I'm next in Gero :)

Not value for the money

Not value for the money we paid. Room no heating, kettle in the shared kitchen is disgusting. Bed is old. No wifi service. Lights in the bathroom turn off itself after 10 minutes, it's not very convenient when you are half way getting dress after shower.
