Reviews of Julian Guest House

There was no breakfast served.

security, clean building,and friend staff.

No breakfast included in package Location was convient

The water pressure was very löw The fan was not powerful enough for croking the room ,it was stuffy The room was not sound proof to drown out the loud noises from outside

The location. Surrounded by shops and a market. Easy access to public transport and taxi services. Mr Julian is friendly and helpful.

The room smells . Needs to air out the room before guests check in. The room is clean but the towels weren't much more than rags and the bed rugs were worse . It's difficult to get in and out once the guests house's front door is closed The code system doesn't work properly so I was locked out twice. Booking. Com also need to advise guests of the extra charges. 10 US dollars extra service charge , and 4% extra for paying with a debt or credit card.

Location is close to sites and good food places. The host was friendly.

The sheets, towels, and pillow cases were dirty and had yellow and red marks/ stains. There is no insulation, so you hear everything from outside, and the cockroaches easily get it. On the second day, the bathroom light stopped working. There was only cold water to shower with. There is a karaoke late on friday nights, so don't plan on sleeping then. The rooms are in need of renovation since there are big gaps in an outside door that let's cockroaches in. The room gets warmer than the outdoor temperature. There is apparently a kitchen area, but guests basically never have access to it. The host warned us the first day to not be out after dark since it is "dangerous," so we mostly took dinner back to our room and ate with the utensils provided by the restaurants. When you are booking this room, you are booking a place to sleep. Don't expect cleanliness.

It was near the location i need to be

A had to paid cash

Perfect location, close to town centre. Nice balcony to sit outside. Clean, quiet.

Wifi is only really working on the balcony, not inside the room.

I liked having the cost of my first night removed as it was closed when I arrived at 2 a.m. I had to go to my tour hotel and wait until 4 a.m. to even get registered due to so many bookings there. In the end I just stayed in the lobby until I could book a taxi to buy postcards and stamps and then went to Julian Guesthouse. My flight was delayed and processing the passengers took an inordinate amount of time such that I could not reach Julian Guesthouse before closure at midnight. Upon arrival there I could not get in despite my driver trying every conceivable number to reach the owner. I had to pay an extra taxi charge to return the next day for my booking of the second night. There were no rooms at my tour hotel given the Easter holiday and full occupancy there before my tour began the following day, so I was thankful that I had that booking at Julian's Guesthouse. Julian automatically offered to remove that charge for the first night given my attempt to honour my booking but the impossibility to do so given the lack of 24-hour staffing. I enjoyed my conversation with other personnel at the hotel. I could write postcards while waiting for a taxi the next day and enjoy a complimentary coffee. Julian was an agreeable host.

24-hour entry possibility

The host/owner is outstanding. I was coming in after hours and he set up a self check in for me. After he sent me the info, he personally called me on WhatsApp to make sure I got it and to ask if I had questions. What great service.

Listen, it's not a hotel. It's more like typical house with rooms accessed from the outside. So, the bathroom wasn't nice looking, but that's real life there; it was clean. Sheets and towel were clean.

the room was clean

The staff wasn't very welcoming thought it was a restaurant but we weren't allowed to order food or anything room hadn't much of the normal amenities you'd expect the owner was a little irritable

Very friendly, conveniently located.

Location

There were mice coming under the door and entering the room. Also, there isn't any ventilation in the room

Julian is a nice man who was very flexible with my late night check-in. The guesthouse is located around various restaurants and shops. While the rooms are not luxurious, they are great for backpackers and budget travelers.

Julian provides a good stay in Georgetown.
