The location of this guesthouse is stunning, but the actual guesthouse is old and poorly maintained. I believe they are either closing down or renovating so maybe things will change. My fiance and I stayed in a private room, which was very basic. The sheets and pillows did not smell clean. The bathroom was very cold as they kept all... More

I really could have stayed in that beautiful, idyllic setting for years. The guesthouse is a beautiful old converted military hospital and I stayed in a room in which the doors open onto a lovely garden with an amazing view from the top of the hill that it is situated from. The owner is an absolutely amazing character with so... More

This is not flash but it is friendly and comfortable. If you want 5 star go to a resort. Father's is relaxed, homely and a great place to mix with others and get great first-hand travel tips. If you don't want to mix you can be private in a double ensuite room. We enjoyed the food. So good to have... More

Atmosphere in Father's Guest House its just like it should be. The owner build's it. That's why you don't have to worry about anything expect good weather. The rooms and rest area it's just like on the pics on the web site. Free pick up from the bus station. Wi-fi everywhere (even in the toilet;). What else should we expect... More

We enjoyed our stay here! The bed was good, the room a bit small without any windows (well there were windows near the ceiling, so there was light, but you couldn't look outside from our room). There are rooms that do have windows. The shared bathroom is good and clean. The communal area is very nice, there are computers, there's... More

Inside the room there is a small add on bathroom which is open roof so not much privacy! The bathroom is quite old and small with black mold around the... More
