“Adventurous little place”
An adventurous little place with friendly staff. There is a shared bathroom for many people, which is not very convenient since you sometimes have to wait in line, and there are only two toilets. On the bright side, there was always hot water and it was warm everywhere. You walk around barefoot, as they ask you to take off your shoes at the entrance, which was fine with me. There is a shared kitchen and it has a hostel vibe, BUT you still have your own private room. It can be a bit noisy, as conversations between rooms can be heard. The sheets were clean and overall it was a pleasant stay.

“A pleasant stay - very friendly staff 😃”
A really decent guesthouse. The staff were lovely and very helpful. Having access to two fully kitted out kitchens was great as we were able to prep our own foods. The bathrooms were a little ‘sheddy’ but who cares - they were clean and warm. The room was nice although I don’t know about sleeping on a bunk bed at the age of 37. I guess it was fun. Great views from outside the guesthouse.

“Comfortable family-friendly guesthouse”
A comfortable guesthouse near the Oxi pass and road 1, with welcoming and kind personnel. The rooms are adequate, beds comfortable. There are two well equipped kitchens and enough seats and tables for everyone. Games and colouring books for children, very appreciated.

“Cosy guesthouse in the waterfall valley”
The guesthouse is in a quiet valley out of road no.1, but not too far from it. It is small but well equipped, there are two kitchens with tea and coffee. There are two toilets, but only one shower, but for the guesthouse, it is enough. The room is spacious and equipped with earplugs. The whole house was cosy.
