Homestays in Ethiopia

"Kinglet was a hospitable host. Quiet and serene environment. Home was full of history. Meal was delicious."

"La ubicación muy buena si llegas en camion aparte todo queda caminando."

Un poco la recepción y no saber que hacer o no hacer. Nunca vi a mi host.

"Dudy was such a pleasure to stay with and I highly recommend booking with him. He graciously let me drop off my belongings early and pick them up after checkout so that I had extra time to explore the city. The room was spacious and I felt extremely comfortable the entire time. And what a beautiful garden! We had some great conversations about the plants that I was seeing and about his recommendations for the best things to do in the city. I was glad that I took his advice. Thank you so much for hosting me and making my trip wonderful!"

"Sehr sauberes Zimmer und freundlicher Empfang. Schönes Haus in ruhiger Gegend und für unsere Zwecke optimal gelegen."

Ich persönlich bin kein Freund von Gemeinschaftsbad und -küche (war aber unmissverständlich so deklariert ;-) ).

"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.

"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

"Unmanned hotel. Clear instruction to guests entering the hotel, public kitchen is very good, tidy, floor heating is nice. clear instruction garbage sorting. Near airport."

"Everyone in Paea's family was so warm and friendly! We were immediately welcomed and made to feel at home. The room was private, and the strong fan kept us cool. The home is a short walk to the beach, and we enjoyed walking along the waterfront into town. It was far from city nose and peaceful at night. 'Ofa and Saffron picked us up from the airport, waited while we bought phone data, drove us to a market for produce, and then drove us to the store for other food before helping us get settled in. 'Ofa drove us back to the airport when we left and offered to stop anywhere we wanted to see as well. They are wonderful people. -Denise and David"

The airport ride cost is not posted online before booking (100 TOP each way), but taking everything into account, the cost seems reasonable; the family is willing to get you what you need in town, and they are lovely to talk with on the way. The airport is 40 minutes away even without any stops. Still, if you are a visitor on a tighter budget, you may want to find somewhere closer to the airport. (This wasn't something we "didn't like" but rather something we thought we would mention for visitors who may not know transportation in Tonga can be pricey.)

"Very clean, cozy and charming spot. Very glad I chose to stay here and I would be happy to book here again!"

"Punctual staff, caring and helpful, nice garden not far from train station and the lake."

All was okay.

"Henrique and his wife are great people including his workers. Great attention to detail. My wife and I always looked forward to breakfast. I'm not surprised they're so highly regarded on booking.com. Great job. Keep it up."

Can't fault them on anything.

"It has a tv, iron, mini fridge, microwave, and separate entrance"

There was a pee smell. Probably, from a prior guest. However, the place seemed very clean besides the smell.

"O sr. Armindo é super atencioso, a comunicação foi excelente, cama confortável, bom banho, tudo limpo. Local agradável, a repetir!"

Aucun.

"The place is a bit more than 1 km from the main road and it is easy to walk there. The room has comfortable bed, fan and also a table suitable for working. The hosts (2 sisters) are very kind. There is a takeaway food shop quite close (in front of the college)."

The wall between my room and room of the owner is from wood, so people can hear each other.

"Amanda and Sabine were excellent hosts giving us free access to kitchens and other facilities. They both spoke excellent English."

Dumbea sur Mer is basically a boring suburb of McMansion houses and a shopping mall.

"Hello The room is in a good area and close to the sea and access to everything is good, but the shower faucet needs to be changed"

Aucun.

"Everything clean and neat. All essential things was there if you wants to cook."

It’s just on 2nd bathroom the heater don’t work.

"Beautiful location. Quiet homestay in excellent condition with friendly staff."

"The space is pretty cool and has character . There were 2 other guests but it was obvious. Actually had a great chat with them . But the property inside has a charm to it . Open and airy. The star is the host who is warm and friendly and a local , so you get the vibe of actually being in Guyana . The host was very accommodating and me the stay feel very micasa sucasa. I would stay here again and again ."

"Spacious, clean apartment with comfy beds, central location, great communication with owners"

"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.

"Ivan und seine Schwester waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit! Vielen Dank"

Kein fließendes Wasser, kein Kühlschrank

"Mark is very hospitable owner, the apartment is clean and cosy, location is good. Mark was so kind to let us stay longer and check out late."

We didn't expect that "shared kitchen" means that the host is actually living and sleeping at the kitchen, but as we stayed for one night it was not a problem.
