    Sympathische Herberge mitten in der Altstadt

    Mitten in der Altstadt, nicht weit vom Anleger der Flughafenfähren. Gepäckaufbewahrung bis zum Abflug am Nachmittag. Freundliche Geschwister leiten die Herberge. Ventilator war für uns ausreichend. Frühstück: Früchte, Tee oder Kaffee, Ingwer-Fruchtsaft, Rührei, Brot, Aufstriche. Viele zentraleuropäische Steckdosen im Zimmer.

    Wlan war wohl vorhanden, wir haben aber kein Passwort bekommen. Haben allerdings auch nicht nachgefragt, weil es für uns nicht so wichtig war.

    Close to the center. Room size. Friendly staff.

    A bit boring on decoration

    Perfect Stay at Jamala Guest House

    The location was excellent, just a few steps to the ocean. I really enjoyed the breakfast and their African Tea. The host (Jamala) and the staff members (Rose) were very friendly. I love the art in the Jamala Guesthouse

    Everything was excellent. There is nothing I didn't like.

    港やメインロードに近くて便利。快適な宿。

    ・部屋が広々として明るくて綺麗 ・部屋の前に外でくつろげるソファスペースがある ・水圧は弱めだけどホットシャワーが使える ・メインロードや海沿いの道から徒歩1〜2分。空港との船着場からも5分以内の立地。 ・屋上に上がると海が見える ・朝食のフルーツジュースがオリジナルで美味しかった ・Wi-Fiも快適 ・スタッフが親切。空港行きの乗合ボートに乗りたいと話していたら、ボートに連絡してくれていた。（感謝）
