My stay at Melvilla Guesthouse was simply fantastic! The host was super friendly and made me feel right at home. The room was clean and comfortable, though I wished I had more time to enjoy the beautiful gardens and inviting common areas. I definitely plan to return for a longer stay next time!

I had a wonderful stay at Melvilla Guesthouse. The accommodation was comfortable and impeccably clean, which immediately made me feel at home. The host, Eleanor, was exceptionally kind and helpful, making my experience even more enjoyable. The only downside was that I could only stay for two nights, as I would have loved to extend my time there and explore more.
