This place was just perfect for the price asked. I did not stay the night, just needed a place to take a shower and change clothes after a long travel and before heading to a party. The room was simple, but spotlessly clean and the guest house could not be situated better. On the main road between Tallinn and Tartu, free parking on site

“A good option for those passing by to spend the night.”
Quite a good place - by the river. The jacuzzi in the room was a blessing after a long journey.

The room was clean and comfortable, but the walls are really thin so you can hear most everything going around you. The breakfast was good and the staff was very accomodating and friendly,

“Wouldn't recommend it!”
The bedsheets and towels were quite disgusting - as if they'd been in use for decades.

“Cosy place by the river”
It's clean and cosy, has parking space. Murmuring river sound makes it even cosier.
