Great choice

On a business trip to Buja, was looking for a place close to the city center and found out this guest house, did not find any review about it so was hesitating at the begining but finally took the risk and went there based on the photos I saw and you know what, it was a great surprise, very warm, clean and cosy place, room are very well furnished, hot water, AC, nice garden, great breakfast and on top an amazing owner and staff who will be always looking after any of your request in timely and efficient manner, price is affrodable and almost half of what other places would be proposing, to conclude, it was a very good place to stay, and I highly recommend it. Two small negative points: TV is still not working in the rooms and WiFi is not always stable but it s OK could send my emails and do my calls.
