This place is great. Its more like having your own place than a private room. You have the entire basement to yourself. There is no kitchen but more than enough appliances to get a meal made. It's a 1.5ish hour walk from the ferry and less than an hour by foot to Ganges. We are big on hoofing it while visiting other places! The area is nice and quiet. And for SSI its surprisingly affordable! I highly recommend this place.
