This is a special place, warm and welcoming hosts, lovely rooms, a very comfortable bed and nicely set up shared kitchen to make tea and coffee or a meal. We also loved the great location, really close to the beach, so easy to check the surf and go surfing. Would stay again in a heartbeat!! Thank you

What a wonderful surprise. It exceeded all expectations. We were uncertain about staying in a “shared bathroom” situation but in this case there were more than enough bathrooms to take care of the guests. Very quiet. Well-equipped kitchen and common area. Loved the owners who are there every day. Super helpful suggestions upon check-in. They even helped me fill out a lost item request with the bus transport company. All in all a FIRST CLASS operation. Highly recommended. Great location in a safe, cool neighborhood.

Cosy simple guesthouse, great value find!

The host greeted us upon arrival and was so nice and attentive. He gave us many tips on what to do and see in the city. We were happily surprised of how lovely our bedroom was as this is a guesthouse and not a hotel. The bathroom was in quite poor condition, very worn but it was clean so nothing to complain about that. There is a joint kitchen space that made it possible to make coffee/tea and store food. Very welcoming with so many free little bits like tea bags etc. The location of the guesthouse is great, wouldn’t change a thing as it feels like you live amongst the locals and not a tourist hot spot. Very close to beach and restaurants. Would recommend!
