    Hamory Guesthouse
    Excellent location with a wonderful host…
    5 / 5
    This is a guesthouse and not a hotel so the expectation is different, but the host was extremely friendly and the location was very convenient. The room was small but had just enough space for one person. The only downside was the that the stairs are a bit steep and there’s no elevator. I could see that being a concern for older folks. Overall an excellent experience!…
