Really lovely place! The room was clean and modern and the hosts were so helpful. They sent us some brilliant guides that we used to see the city, they were responsive to our messages and sent a staff member to say hello when we arrived. There was even some bread provided in the communal area, in case we got hungry. We did, and it was delicious - we think it was coffee flavoured. Do note that the private bathroom is just across the hallway, but the place was lovely and quiet and was in no way an issue at all. Would absolutely recommend this place.

It is rare to receive such a warm, hospitable welcome. The hosts received us with activities suggestions, maps of local sights and eateries and were open to accommodating our extra needs. The location was really convenient on a quiet street just a few minutes walk from the main area. Cozy hip coffeeshops are right on the corner as well as places preferred by Georgetown locals. Key destinations such as Armenian street or famous jetis are also very conveniently close. The shared spaces and rooms are beautifully designed with a minimalistic approach. The room and facilities were particularly clean and we would surely stay here again!
