“The Greenhouse Guesthouse strikes me as a welcoming spot near the V&A Waterfront; its accessible location on Main Road simplifies getting around, and the hosts clearly aim for a personal touch. I appreciate the quiet rooms at the back and the practical setup-fridge, tea-though soundproofing could be better. For anyone prioritizing location and a friendly atmosphere over absolute quiet, it's a solid choice.”
