Me and my fiance Stayed here from Easter Sunday for 2 nights. Room was nicely decorated with small ensuite bathroom. Very clean and bed really comfy. Breakfast was great and Jill was lovely. Would definitely stay there again. Just 10 min walk to the harbour too.

Stayed at the Joben for 2 nights. Lovely room, lovely breakfast, lots of choice and Jill could not have been more welcoming. Ideally situated 10mins to harbour plenty bars and restaurants. Maybe the only drawback was the bathroom was down the corridor although it was for our sole use. Would definitely go back.

We stayed 2 nights at Joben under Jill's care and felt very welcome and at home. The guest house is adorably decorated and quirky. Our room was really lovely and had a very cosy feel to it with a super comfy bed. Breakfast was great and set us up for the day. Will be back....

Jill was lovely and very helpfull but.. Towels were worn and smelt odd. There were holes in the sheets. Hot water was from water heaters rather than running hot water. Breakfast was so bad that we left early the next day to avoid it. Decor is very dated and cluttered. TV did not receive digital channels. Would only accept cash.

The listing I viewed said parking available. When we arrived (which took over an hour to find!!!) there were umpteen cars triple parked outside with no where to park within a 5 min walk to the B&B and the parking that was that far off wasn't free. I was greeted by a young lad who was very polite but didn't... More
