Guest house Bon, is a great place to stay, but if you are tall it is a bit cramped, it wasn't uncommon to hit you head on the roof, the place was very clean and Bon was very accommodating,he was the best part of the trip
Fantastic! Helped us with all we needed, even with things we didn’t expect. Like picked us up at the station and washed our clothes at this private washer, when the main washer was in use.
This feels like you are in someone's home, in all of the good ways! Plenty of privacy, it's quiet, the room is bigger than expected AND there's communal space, a kitchen and shared showers/toliets, all very clean and well kept. Plus it's close to temples and gardens that you can explore early before the crowds.
