9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (13)
"The staff is beyond friendly and helpful. That's really what makes this place worth staying at. The room for me was wayyy too small with not even enough space to open my suitcase in it, but the staff was very helpful and understanding of why I ended up staying somewhere else. It's a beautiful space, but I would only recommend it if you are a light packer/minimalist. The location is great for walking around the Getsemani and walled city area. "

"I love this place SO MUCH! It's such a hidden gem, the Uber driver actually had to ask a young boy where it was, even though we were about 50 feet from the property. (It shares space with a kitesurf shop. Just look for the gear hanging on the wall.) Heavenly private! I was skeptical that such an inexpensive room could actually have a view of the ocean, but they were telling the truth. Five minutes after checking in, I was swinging in my own hammock, hanging from the walls of the veranda...
