“Convenient and enjoyable. Will visit again.”
Close to all the shops and restaurants - could walk everywhere. Host used WhatsApp and it was easy to correspond. There was problem with hot water the evening, which was resolved, and I found a present and card (nice bottle of jam) to apologize for any convenience the next morning outside our door. This was a lovely gesture. This was our 3rd time to stay at the guesthouse and will visit again.

Location and cleanliness is everything to us and 278 on Main gets 10/10 for both. We could not have asked for a better position. The room was clean and had everything we needed. 278 on Main will be our first choice when we visit Clarens again.
