"It has a great view of Lalibela from the bar, the restaurant, and the patio. It seems the property has not kept up probably due to the downtown of tourism and economy. My room had only one working table lamp so I ate my dinner in the dark. The staff were helpful and friendly. It was an average stay overall. "
"Friendly staff, well-appointed rooms, functional wi-fi, great view.
Mosquitoes at night and no screens drove me batty. Lalibela has flies during the day and mosquitoes at night, so other guest houses may have the same issue."
"El personal siempre atento a todo y muy amables, está en el centro de Lalibela a lo que permite que llegar a la mayoría de las iglesias a pie. El único inconveniente: nuestra puerta del baño no se podía cerrar porque no había pestillo. Pero a pesar de esto estamos muy satisfechas con nuestra estancia ahí"

"Prachtige locatie, mooi uitzicht. Echt leven tussen de locals. Bijzondere ervaring.
Mensen zijn heel gastvrij, goede verzorging.
Geen voorzieningen van water en elektriciteit.
Minder prettig was de kou. De enige mogelijkheid om warm te blijven is het vuur in een afgesloten ruimte.
De hoogte gaf lichamelijke klachten."
"Avoid this scam!
We booked this hotel and payed in advance with Expedia. As we checked out the hotel asked for 100 USD for 2 nights which is way higher than it should be. As of now(2020/01/25) the hotel claims that they don't work with Expedia.
The host speaks only numbers and a few English words making communication impossible and scamming quite possible. We asked to book a shuttle to the airport the day before but they only called the shuttle service 30 mins before departure. The shuttle...

10/10 Excellent
"Great stay. Wonderful staff, who set me up with a ferric tour guide. "
"It has a great view of Lalibela from the bar, the restaurant, and the patio. It seems the property has not kept up probably due to the downtown of tourism and economy. My room had only one working table lamp so I ate my dinner in the dark. The staff were helpful and friendly. It was an average stay overall. "
"Personally, I loved the simplicity and minimalism of the hotel.
The uniqueness. The noises you can hear through the walls. (I need noise to fall asleep and I was there over Timket celebration)
I call this luxury. Wifi. A bed (with shiny bedding). A shower and running water. Friendly staff. A TV that I never used. (Like who needs television when life itself is entertaining enough). Transfer currency to Birr, as that is the only currency accepted. It states Complimentary water and transportation. In 2025, you will have to pay for those. You will experience insects, although I felt there were few.
The staff is attentive and friendly-I would definitely keep good communication as the restaurant could close early. "
