I loved my stay at the Gower Guest House and would definitely stay there again. The room was clean, it's self check in and check out and instructions were easy to follow. The housekeeper allowed me to leave my bag there, hours before check in. The location is excellent, walking distance to the rooms, the vibrant downtown streets.
