This was our most outstanding stay during our holiday. We loved the hospitality of the owners, their kindness, their guesthouse, their breakfasts, the location and all the little extras that made this stay so memorable. We are already looking forward to our next trip to PE!

They were the sweetest couple who went above and beyond to accommodate our breakfast time since we needed to catch a flight so early! I will be forever thankful!

Staying at Bright on 5th was a real delight. Mary and Chris are the perfect hosts. They are warm and welcoming but do not encroach on your privacy. The room is more like a suite and is large and very comfortable. I could not enjoy breakfast due to an early start daily, but my delicious packed breakfast awaited me on time every morning. It is often the small gestures that make the experience perfect, for example, the warm water bottle to help with the chilled nights, the gown left in my room on my second stay, and the 'let us know when you arrive safely' because travelling in the dark and rain concerned them. As I mentioned, they do not encroach on your privacy, but they show that they care when it is needed. I highly recommend Bright on 5th for any business traveller who wants comfort, cleanliness, hospitality, convenience, privacy, security and a good night's sleep - it is truly a home away from home. I look forward to my third stay with Mary and Chris.
