I had a pleasant stay here! The shared showers were a bit of a culture shock as a young woman from the US but the facilities provided were great. So be advised to shower with others. The toilet rooms were clean and located in the center of the haul allowing easy access. Bed was very comfortable! Plenty of outlets and a sink with a cup in room was lovely. I appreciate the hospitality!

Getting to the guesthouse was a bumpy ride, be careful midway as there is a big difference in elevation, our suv most definitely hit the ground pretty hard. Other than this instance, the host was sweet and greeted me and gave me a tour for the guesthouse. The room was quaint and the facilities were clean. There is a hot tub in the back but i wasn’t able to check it out, though it wouldve been nice if I wasnt so tired. Would recommend! :)
