My wife and I stayed at this B&B last week and overall, it was good experience. We are very budget conscious travelers so that affects our reviews wherever we travel to. We do not throw money around willy nilly to ease our consciences as that just contributes to inflation; instead we donate to schools where the long term effects of... More

Enjoyed my stay there. February 2 - 6, 2013. The guest home is beautiful, the staff very helpful and courteous. Our driver, Bobby, was quite a gentleman. The meals were excellent. The owner, Genet, is the hostess with the mostest. Enjoyed every moment she spent with us. Wifi and converters available.

Myself and my family stayed with Genet at the begining of our holiday in Ethiopia. What a wonderful introduction! Genet is just so personable and warm. She really has created an oasis of relaxation and homeliness within the hustle and bustle of Addis. We also returned to Genet on our last day as we were not flying out until late... More

Genet actually brought me with to a holiday party with her, and I had a great time.... More

You are home from the first moment you enter: Genet, welcoming you with open arms; delicious food at the long dinner table, a spacious room with comfi bed, and a large living room to chat with the other guests or sink into the sofa with a book, laptop or with a nice cup of tea. Well done Genet! I had... More
