"Eenvoudig, maar praktisch ingericht en voorzien van alle gemakken! Prima bed (niet zo breed) Prima prijs/kwaliteit verhouding. Super vriendelijke host!"

Als ik persé iets zou moeten noemen, is het het ontbreken van een kraan en wasbak in het keukenblok. Creatief met afwassen, door vullen van de aanwezige teil met de waterkoker, die je in de badkamer met een kommetje moet vullen, omdat hij niet onder de kraan past 😁 Maar goed, ik vond het zelf gewoon prima zo.

"Kevin was a helpful and informative host . He is also a good cook , delivering large portions of food at mealtimes . The house is a pretty cottage in a nice setting ."

I struggled to get hot water in the shower for a while . The road nearby is quiet which is good for sleeping but not so good for public transport .

"It's located conveniently near the town center but still very secluded and peaceful. The bedding was extremely comfortable."

The food was okay but could have been nicer. Bring your mosquito repellent!

"The owner is super friendly and gave loads of recommendations about Westport. Also gave us a lift into the city centre after greeting us 😁"

Not really any downside about the accommodation. A car is needed as you cant really walk from there into town, but there is on-site parking and taxi services.

"Helena is super friendly! It was a pleasure to stay in one of the apartments."

The kitchen was not equipped very well. It is sufficient only for short stays. So if you stay for two or three nights it is OK - otherwise you will not be able to prepare decent meals there.

"The view and the terrace were amazing. It was all very clean. John & Gloria are great hosts."

The bed was a little small.for.the two of us.

"Privat geführte Unterkunft, sehr schöne Ausstattung und wundervolle Gastgeberin."

"Nice sea view from the room, location's not far from restuarant in village"

-common kitchen area is so small

"very happy with this house,very spacious,clean cold and hot water available."

no issues

"Felex, Asinja and the kids were so welcoming! They cook delicious food with local produce. Felex is always up for a chat and coordinating a wonderful community project in the village. It’s a simple room but basic amenities, but a truly unique experience."

I liked it all!

"This is my third time here staying I love this property … the ambiance , the staff ..The property is very beautiful.. I am always amazed when I get here .."

Everything was perfect 👌👌👌

"Good vibes and good environment.its also very quiet"

Loved everything

"The host and her granddaughter who helped with my stay were amazing. The host picked me up in the city and brought me to St Marys and again to the airport in the morning. The traffic was terrible leaving Quito, I felt sorry for the host dealing with it. I was a little concerned that the dogs and other guests might continue making noise throughout the night but that wasn't the case. You are certainly aware of your proximity to the airport as you can hear planes over head. The 'village' is spotlessly clean and well maintained."

I wish there gad been an option to pay with credit card, but I get it.

"The place felt so homely I almost forgot I was away from home. The ambience? Absolutely toptier, The location.. definitely stunning.. tucked inside a beautiful and very secure neighborhood. And then there’s Fridah, our host… honestly, she’s a gem. So kind, so warm, so down to earth, she's the kind of host you wish every trip came with...I’m not even kidding, we were low-key heartbroken when it was time to leave💔 I wish we could’ve stretched that stay forever. This is one place I’ll always run back to whenever I’m in Msa for sure...no hesitation, no second thoughts"

A little too diluted shower gel

"Very helpful owner, Jose. He was very kind and welcoming throughout our stay. We also had access to a fully equipped kitchen, which was extremely convenient and made our stay much more comfortable. Only 15 min. away from skiing resort Romme Alpin. Highly recommended!"

"Wonderful stay fabulous breakfast spotlessly clean. Hosted by a delightful family super helpful. The host is a great guide to local landmarks hiking and more. we wish we could have stayed longer"

"One of the best places we have ever stayed; we really did not want to leave. Super high quality apartment and very comfortable. Well equipped for a holiday stay (but no oven). Lovely views across the mountains and also down to the lake. Easy walk down to the lake with a nice hotel/restaurant and even a small supermarket at the bottom of the road. About another 20 minutes into the town itself, along the footpath. So great location; peaceful and quiet without the Bled town crowds and traffic."

The hot water system will drive you mad - if, like us, you were brought up not to waste water! And bring your own shower gel etc.

"Fernando and Ángel were super nice and friendly! It's a room at their house and like a homestay. Thank you for your hospitality ! The only downside was the mosquitoes 🫠"

"Rauhallinen sijainti. Hyvä vuode. Viihtyisä huone. Miellyttävä henkilökunta."

Painavien matkatavaroiden rahtaus kapeissa portaissa yläkertaan vaivalloista. Suihkussa ei laskutilaa pesuvälineille. Amme ei hyvä suihkualusta. Sisäänkäynnin sähköinen lukko piti meteliä, kun sitä käytti. Pysäköinti pihaan jyrkkää mäkeä pitkin.

"That’s amazing studio flat in a very nice hotel. It is sad that is sharing apartment, but you don’t share anything. You have your private bathroom, washing machine, private kitchen, private balcony, the only thing you share is one door to get to your flat. There are food shops and restaurants all around. Tram and bus stops very close. Metro station is about 1 km away, but you can take tram to get there, it takes two stops. Apartment was clean, nice clean white sheets, clean good towel, shampoo and hair conditioner. Security downstairs so you feel absolutely safe. Location is good for taking a walk by the marina to see yachts and a wonderful view to all buildings around. Wi-fi was good."

There is nothing in the kitchen, no spoons, no forks, no cups, no plates, absolutely empty. I had to buy a cup just to make coffee. Had to wait host for 1,5 hour. The main things to see are far away from the property, you need to take metro and ride 10-15 stops to see burj khalifa, the frame, future museum and ect. At least it’s one line. There was bad smell in the kitchen (can’t understand where it was coming from) had to keep balcony’s door open all the time. Very noisy street outside, cars and trams traffic all the time.

"Very spacious, nice facilities for families and friends and the host & staff were super nice and helpful"

"Przyjemny i wygodny pokój z kuchnią, łazienką i osobnym wejściem. Właścicielka bardzo miła."

"This is an excellent small guesthouse and the hosts are extremely friendly and helpful. Everything was clean and comfortable. The area is very quiet and Bahir Dar is one of the most beautiful cities in Africa. The hosts, Ashenafi and Habtamu, showed us around and made us feel very welcome."

This is a new guesthouse and they are still getting all the facitilties that a western tourist would expect, but everything important was there including shower, cooking facilities, chairs and tables in the patio and a barbeque!

"Very comfortable, spacious, and private. Location was safe, gated, and welcoming. Sitting areas, balcony, and kitchen were available. The hosts were just simply AMAZING. We so enjoyed spending time with them and conversing as we were able. Issa welcomed us with a big smile and much kindness. They were also very helpful to us concerning food for our brief stay. We cannot recommend Issa’s House more highly. We loved it, and them."

Nothing to dislike.
