Overnight stay @ Lorraines On Lincoln Guest House

Lovely place and awesome location. Enjoyed my stay, and the service was great. My late check in was accommodated. Great value for money. I will be back.

Despote having a valid confirmation, there were no rooms for me.. after a wait for an hour, the owner advised,via the receptionist, that she was trying to make a plan.. by this time i was utterly frustrated and made other arrangements that cost me double the price.. Totally dissatisfied
